Any1 with a Metrox g400 32 mb DH ?

Let us know what is your experience with the card, and what drivers do you use on what system configuration ?

Great card, will work fine in mosts system configurations.

You should avoid using it with certain FIC motherboards that do not properly support AGP, and getting it to work with VIA, Ali and SiS chipsets can be it bit of a hassle...

On Intel chipsets it works just fine, but some motherboards based on the very outdated Intel LX chpiset can't provide enough current to the card, due to poor motherboard design.

I'm running it on a P3-700@933 in Win2k, Abit BX6 r.2 motherboard (Intel BX)

Look at my sig. I have use a bunch of cards but always come back to G400 for it's nice 2D. Plus their matured so their shouldn't be any incompatibility problem.

except for the inability to play dvd's under win2k this card is great. matrox is definitely losing a lof of customers who are extremely pissed that it's taking this long to release dvd drivers for 2k though.

I got problems installing the card in one of my rigs.
I use a - MSI MS-6309 Mobo (VIA 694X chipset) and a P3 600e cpu.

Can anyone give me a clue as to what drivers (and/or link) should I use to install the card ?

The card keeps crashing on me.

Your help will be greatly aappreciated.

Thanx

Personally, I prefer this card:

The NV20 looks sweet.
