Problems with a Obsidian2 X-24
13.03.13 at 14:22:38
 
I was trying to use the X-24 in my old rig
P3 1GHz (core coppermine, 133mhz)
2x256MB Pc133
all mounted on a HP Vectra VL400 DT (desktop)
I've installed the official Q3D Obsidian2 Drivers 6CF but the system hangs
Sometimes I can't see the screen properties (with a strange error message) and sometimes I can see the properties without the Q3D panel
Any idea?

p.s.
I have two X-24 and both have the same problem
Under Windows Xp both run well

KoolSmoky seems to be less problematic but, again, I have no control panel and the games don't recognize the card.
Any idea?
Thanks

hi, I think disabling CPU to PCI post write will solve the problem, but this will decrease performance.

No problem Smiley Quantum3D Obsidian drivers seem to be quite problematic on anything higher than a 440bx motherboard. Something like that happened to me when I fired up my 200SBi on an Athlon 2800. You can opt to do what I said or just use the normal V2 drivers by throwing the following variables into regedit's 3dfx interactive glide and d3d section:

SSTV2_FT_CLKDEL = 5
SSTV2_TF0_CLKDEL = 7
SSTV2_TF1_CLKDEL = 7
SSTV2_TF2_CLKDEL = 7
SSTV2_SLIM_VIN_CLKDEL = 3
SSTV2_SLIM_VOUT_CLKDEL = 2
SSTV2_SLIS_VIN_CLKDEL = 3
SSTV2_SLIS_VOUT_CLKDEL = 2
SSTV2_GRXCLK = 90

Regards
