Hello,
I just finished a clean install, dual boot 98/Win2K and I'm having some trouble with the Win2K side.
My Win2K system is locking up (no BSOD or error message, just complete freeze requiring cold boot). This has happened twice while surfing (over 8-10 hour period) and every time I run 3DMark, usually in the high resolution portion of the test, parts 3 or 6).
My Win98 system seems solid; no probs running 3DMark.
I am using Det6.26 for the 98 and the Herc supplie 5.30 for Win2K (I am under the impression the 6.26 is not for Win2K???).
The ASPI or plug n play board has put all my cards on IRQ 9 on Win 2K.
Are either the IRQ settings or the Det5.30 causing this problem? Anything else possible?
Here are my specs:
Hardware:
ASUS A7V 1.02
Herc GeForce2 MX OEM 7ns
Win2K on 20 gig 5400RPM Maxtor (master)
Win98 on 8 gig drive (slave)
Plextor 12/10/32 Master on Sec IDE
CD 44X Slave on Sec IDE.
Firewire Card (drivers loaded but no apps software)
(no drives currently on the ATA 100 IDE)
Generic PC100 memory (but not causing probs in Win 98).
Software loaded before noticing problem:
Ultraplayer (music player)
Download Accelerator
Adobe ActiveShare
WinZip
Adaptec CDRW Softare
Adobe Acrobat
Lexmark Printer Software
Thanks for any advice
