A friend offered me a used Nvidia Riva TNT2 (i don't know who is the board manufacturer) Agp 4x wich I've installed on my pentium II 233 with a Soltek 82440LX-ATX SL-66A motherboard (Bios ver.1.0) and 64mb of ram, it keeps locking up my system after little time of use, altough in that period of time i can run games like Half-life in good resolutions (1024-768) with good speed (i can run it at higher resolutions but game speed gets worse). After the lock up, when i restart the computer the motherboard starts making a lot of noise for 1-2 seconds and there's no image on the screen (black screen) then i have to take off the card and re-install it after a while. When I use my ATI 3D Rage Pro 4MB AGP 2X it runs perfectly but with bad 3d performance in games.
Could it be because my system should be running at least a 235-watt power supply (250-watt is preferred.) and is now running at 200 watt power supply?
I have the lastest drivers from nvidia for this card.
Having a look at the graphics card i saw that JP5 should be 1-2 for AGP 2x or 2-3 for Agp 4x, and it's in 2-3 with both points welded thogheter.
Could i "unweld" 2-3 and weld 1-2? Could this resolve the problem?
