Junior [jr from now on], is up and running. https://discussions.virtualdr.com/
I did not get the drive sizes quite the way I wanted them, but they are c; d; e; f; g; .
The only fits I had was to reverse the floppy plug [away from power] and setup.
seems with this machine typeing setup at the A:\> hitting enter and it started loading windows and asked for 3.1/95/98 , gave it disk 1 of 3.1 and then it asked for disk 3 said all was ok and loaded windows 98SE real quick.
HIP HIP< HOORAY.
Now to dig out about the video instructions.
Glad I checked the Boot disk awhile back!!
Give me a day or 2 greengoose as I have to work Sat and probably Sun also. https://discussions.virtualdr.com/ https://discussions.virtualdr.com/ https://discussions.virtualdr.com/

Well if you find that "8 tap Anistropic"
thingy would you tell me where that is so I can set that too ? I never did find that one.
Never found a bunch so far https://discussions.virtualdr.com/ https://discussions.virtualdr.com/

Morning All, Train, Just the one glitch is all. Congrats. What's your component list look like now? https://discussions.virtualdr.com/
Watch out QoH, the train is building a head of steam and who knows....... Do you work with any of that Adobe stuff?
Whar's Bistro, building again?

Morning
I know Train's excited about that overtime. But I bet he can hardly wait to get home this evening and finish up on jr. https://discussions.virtualdr.com/
Only the Reader so far greengoose, I don't know what else they have to offer.
bistro's probably winding that cpu up just another notch or two. https://discussions.virtualdr.com/
I found that Iconhearit trial last night and tried it out. It has all sorts of buttons you can add sounds to including connect but that still didn't do what I anticipated. I heard from the guy I emailed and he said it can be done but you'd (meaning me https://discussions.virtualdr.com/ ) have to write a program using the "RAS api". Oh surrrre, and I'll take care of that this morning. https://discussions.virtualdr.com/
That 99 dollar deal I emailed you about was all about Adobe products and I didn't know if you had used any of them. I thought you and train messed with grapics and such. The reader is part of Adobe. https://discussions.virtualdr.com/

I have and use several different graphics programs.
- AdobePhotoDeluxe 3.0 Home Edition.
LivePix 2.0
Picture it.
Graphic Workshop Proffesional
I use PovRay in conjunction with Moray 3.2
My play toy is Fractal Explorer
The Yellow ? marks. No pci devices added yet. https://discussions.virtualdr.com/
The best I have gotten is 1568 for the 3D mark. I do not have a bunch of those settings bistro commented about. Or blind and can not see them. https://discussions.virtualdr.com/
The darn thing kept locking up so finally went unto the cpu and changed the vcore to 1.60V and it will now run. Auto evidently was to high.

Yep, Train. Blind in one eye... can't see outta the other. https://discussions.virtualdr.com/
https://discussions.virtualdr.com/ Which ones did you not find ? That 8 tap Anistropic was the only one I have not been able to find.
Some lady keeps screaming at me in the FE. https://discussions.virtualdr.com/

That was one of them, but remember, my bios is different than your.
will dig into it later, but quite a learning curve, hehe.
I'll bet she has a loud penetrating voice https://discussions.virtualdr.com/
I did a rendering in Moray.
- on compaq it took 58 seconds. And I thought not bad.
On jr , did the same one, , , 4 seconds
Now that is a difference!!! And that is what I wanted.

Hello dere. https://discussions.virtualdr.com/ Don't worry about that 8-bit anistropic setting--not available on later versions I found out. The anistropic filtering setting in NVMax and/or Display Properties (OpenGL tab) takes care of it. Got 3DMark score of 5457 so far--not too shabby. Added another 128 today for 512mb RAM---think that's enough???? https://discussions.virtualdr.com/ Anyhoo, still tweakin' and thinkin'....maybe put an Evinrude 350 outboard motor on it to cool it down....hmmmmmm....
[This message has been edited by bistro (edited 03-03-2001).]
512! https://discussions.virtualdr.com/
I poked around in the BIOS today for no reason at all... just looking at the Soft menu III. https://discussions.virtualdr.com/
ReReading that section in my MB manual.
btw...whats FSB ?

Dr Bistro, Is not anistropic a medical term? Good to hear you or is it read you. https://discussions.virtualdr.com/

Well, every body is building or up grading or overclocking or poking around in Bios and I'm trying to get enough stuff together to start building. If you overlook the questionable humor there is alot of info in these threads thanks to the gnomes of knowledge that have helped the QoH and I. https://discussions.virtualdr.com/

Hello Theoran,
Thank you, and Welcome!
So far, Train and I have both built new systems. Mine is and has been running wonderful since the 8th of Feb.(when it was born https://discussions.virtualdr.com/ ) No illegal operations or BSOD's
Train gave birth last night.
greengoose is next. https://discussions.virtualdr.com/

antiseptic---free from what is held to be contaminating... https://discussions.virtualdr.com/
anisotropic---exhibiting properties with different values when measured in different directions
I just got confused is all. https://discussions.virtualdr.com/ Nite All

Lights are fixed, batteries are dead, or very close to it, in 4 hours. Off the clock, home and relaxing, waiting for the coffee pot to finish.
But done with the earthquake damage....

the 3D runs smooth and looks good. So I set everything back and only lost 2 on the benchmark score. And just think, for $10 more, I could have set up 2 monitors. KICK
Had to get The vid card from Guillemot.
Seems there was a major run on them around here.

anistrophic<<< This was on the nVMAX ---> NO SUCH WORD listed in the dictionary
anisotropic<<< This was on the Open GL settings under Additional GeForce MX Properties in the little white box.

Are these the same thing ? Did somebody misspell it..I'm thinking is most likely misspelled by Hercules because they misspelled that word "though" for "thought" on their web site too, remember? https://discussions.virtualdr.com/

https://discussions.virtualdr.com/ It's annoying to me, because not only did I have enough trouble just finding the place where they were supposed to be, but also with my own spelling. https://discussions.virtualdr.com/
But I did find and check out that overclockin' part of the Video Card. https://discussions.virtualdr.com/ Fixing to test aaaalllll the way over to the right.
"Which ones did you not find ? That 8 tap Anistropic was the only one I have not been able to find."
Mosaic,
Well! GOOD ! Thank you. I thought even I had spelled it wrong too, but then after you posted that I got out bistro's tweak sheet and that's where I got that spelling from.
Then he spelled it that way again:
"Don't worry about that 8-bit anistropic setting--not available on later versions I found out. The anistropic filtering setting in NVMax and/or Display Properties (OpenGL tab) takes care of it."
SO ! Bistro was right ! .....why does this not surprise me ? https://discussions.virtualdr.com/

Whut? https://discussions.virtualdr.com/ ya think I should leave well enough alone, Train ? Never have been known to do that. https://discussions.virtualdr.com/
Do you feel any different ? Your's probably does but since I am looking at the same monitor I forget sometimes...UNTIL it's time to open up a BIG program. Then I KNOW where I am.
QOH
If you decide for a bigger, go for the 19".
I should have got 2.
The 17 is okay, but you have better screen control, I am sitting back and reading it from 3 feet away. On compaq now. Just turn my head and reading your post on jr. https://discussions.virtualdr.com/

QoH: Be real careful overclocking that Herc card. You'll probably be able to go as far as 190/190--don't go any further or you'll get break-ups (not to mention you could burn up the card). You need at least a fan on the heat sink and probably some ram (heat) sinks. There are cooling kits out there to modify a GeForce 2 MX card for overclocking (www.2cooltek.com). Until you are ready for that, keep it at normal. My overclocking (190/190) was done AFTER installing a fan on the heat sink and a "nautilus" fan blowing a lot of air onto the vid card. Otherwise, I wouldn't have tried it.
