RADEON 64MB DDR ViVo trouble

[Prophet]

I recently purchased/installed an ATI RADEON 64MB DDR ViVo on my Abit KA7/Athlon 800 Win98SE machine. Ever since, I've had nothing but problems. My computer will hang and the screen will go black (as if asleep), my computer will hang and funky vertical, horizontal, and multi-colored lines will appear on the screen. My games and applications intermittently hang, often ending up in an ultimate crash. My system performance was slowed for some reason, and I experienced random and frequent crashes.

Surely someone out there is running a RADEON on a VIA KX-133 architecture without any problems. If you are, *please* tell me what to do! Help!

Thanks.

I have got the Giga-Byte 7MZ with the KX133. I bought the Radeon 32 DDR. Had the Voodoo3 3000 and did not delete the drivers for the VooDoo3 and really mest things up. Had to format my HD. But got it to work now. Good Luck.
