  • Asus 2B-F mb and G400

    I just received the G400 32M dual head card, and finally got it operating after doing a clean Windows install. Everything seems to work except for bus mastering and one game. I get clean reboots (the system will just reboot on its own) when Bus mastering is enabled in both 3D and 2D (specifically Links99) games, but that doesn't happen when I disable bus mastering. I haven't had any luck installing High Heat 2000 at all. I get a clean reboot regardless of whether Bus Mastering is enabled or not. Any ideas would be appreciated.

    System Specifications:

    Asus 2B-F MB
    PentiumIII 450
    96 meg RAM
    Matrox 32M G400 DH English
    Western Digital 18 gig HD
    Soundblaster Live Value
    US Robotics 56K Winmodem

      Sorry; It was Windows98 (first edition). Remembered everything but that.

        Hi,

        Did you try to disable ECC memory in your BIOS?

        Ciao

          I don't get the ECC option in the BIOS because I don't have the correct memory chips. Could that be the cause of the problem? Everything else seems to work except Bus Mastering and the High Heat game. I'm not overclocking the card, and I'm not doing anything tricky to the memory either. I installed the latest Matrox BIOS, but nothing changed.
