Soltek 75DRV-4 and Radeon 8500 = No problems?

[jkadesjo]

Hi!

I have the Epox 8KHA+ and Radeon 8500 Retail combination. It's driving me nuts.
1. I get lockups when i run 3D applications.
2. Horizontal lines in some games like half-life.
3. When using the expanded desktop with two monitors and the dvi-to-crt adaptor the image on the screen is so bad it's no idea to use it.

I have tried all ATI's drivers, all via-4in1 and all EPoX BIOS'es. There simply are no drivers that solve this problem today.

I don't want any help in identifying the problem, and no help in what driver to update. I have tried it all and now I will return my Radeon 8500 for a new one. I will also return my Epox 8KHA+ for a Soltek 75DRV-4.

Does anyone know if there are any problems with this soltek mobo when using a Radeon 8500 Retail?

The problem is your Epox 8KHA+. The Soltek should have no problems.
