Is there anybody out there who has managed to get
Windows 98 to work with the CL Riva AGP as the Primary Graphics card? If so, I would love to know, I've tried all the drivers CL, Nvidia, Microsoft Certified, updated all there is to update inc bios.

I've seen the Faqs and articles in reference to Multi-monitor systems:


I've followed their instructions:

Configure Primary card i.e. CL Riva AGP
Shut down
Insert xtra card and connect Mon i.e. ATI Charger PCI (Chipset=rage II)
Power up
The Mon connected to the ATI comes alive, the W98 boot screen comes up goes thru the startup files then the HD halts and Hangs!

Original I thought it was the ATI card but it's fine, 'cause I took the CL riva out and booted back up everything was fine. I even did a Multi-Monitor system with the CL Riva replaced with a Cirrus 5446 and that's been great!

any ideas or advice would be greatly appreciated i.e. any bios settings that may need changing that I may have overlooked. Video cache/Shadow, Buffered Memory, AGP aperture size etc.

My system is:
PII 233
64 SDRAM
Cirrus Logic 5446
ATI Charger (Rage II)
Creative Labs Riva TNT AGP
PCI SonicStorm Pro Sound Card
I'm not sure what Mother Board I have though - sorry

pls suggest any ideas. I've ran out

thanks in advance.
