Friends,

I am trying to get an oldie up and running with W2000: VIA chipset (1st PA-2013) with AMD 400MHz, VIA4in1 patch installed. PCI and other AGP graphic board work fine, ERAZOR III shows black screen after w2k boot. Any ideas out there?
THANX ENie

I have forgotten which video chip the Erazor III uses; if it is a GeForce chip, you may be out of luck. I tried to get a Geforce2MX and GeForce 256 DDR cards to work on my FIC VA-503+ with NO luck.
I can give you the general VIA list:

1)Enable USB in BIOS (even if you don't use them)

2)Increase AGP aperature to maximum, or at least half the amount of system RAM

3)Enable 'Assign IRQ to VGA'

4)Set primary display to AGP

5)Install the AGP driver in Turbo Mode

I think that covers it, I hope this helps you. Good luck. <IMG SRC="smilies/smile.gif" border="0">
