is it true?

aopen ax59 pro (via) 1 MB L2 cache onboard.
AMD k6-2 550@560 (5*112)
voodoo 3 2000 AGP 16 MB
DIMM 100 MB PC 100

Is it true that I can't use L2 cache - 'couse if I enable (in BOIS) this pipeline stuff (L2 cache) then my windows 98 SE gives me protection error. (win me gave it too just as well).

Do I lose much in performance if I do not use this 1MB of L2 cache ???

thank U

I read that with the new K6-2's you could use the pipeline burst cache as L3 cache. It is weird that your board does that.

jap - first of all - I'll try to clock it down again then I'll try some other graphics card - how knows - we'll see - or maybe I'll sell this fking machine... and start to built new one

so long...

The l2 cache is much more important that overclocking your bs....HUGE difference in speed
first clock chip back to 100mhz bus not 112 then enable the l2 cache.
if that works try running it at 5.5X100 for 550

yes It works ...
I clocked it down again ((100*5.5 as it must be) - and I enable everything I like on BIOS - includeing pipeline cache... and my PC boots up normally and windows does not give me any errors at all - it seems to be OK now - but how do I know if it uses this L2 cache - I say it because I do not see any difference in speed (performance). In fact Madonion Benchmark system info says still that L2 cahe - not available - is it true or can it be a mistake? I don't know. During machine boot I see still cache 1024 - so I assume it is not damaged.
