Radeon DDR Issues..

[Asubit]

I'm having some glitching with a radeon ddr using a viewsonic ef70 trueflat..

Display is glitching in 3dmark2000 for one...something my old cards weren't doing (voodoo3 2000, gf2 mx)..

Updated all drivers, nothing seems to work..general windows functions also appear to have new latency..

System specs:

piii700e@700
agp 66mhz
win98se
sb live
radeon ddr
128 pc150
abit bf6

Sorry, can't reply for the Radeon problem. If you don't mind my asking, how do you like your Viewsonic EF70? Have you had it for long and are you fully satisfied with it? The reason I'm asking is that I bought one 1 week ago and am curious as to what other EF70 owners have to say about their monitor.

Toss up.

I love the flat screen. And I am quite pleased with the picture quality.

There is some jaggedness with the display edges but it is barely noticeable.

What did you pay for yours?

I think I saw some threads on problems with the radeon and 3dmark2000 over at the Rage3d forums. Also, you may still have some driver files left over from those old cards. You may want to check the device manager, add/remove programs box, and the c:\windows\system folder for any old 3dfx/nvidia files. Old drivers don't get along with new hardware .:frown:

Strange thing occured during the last 15 min. Everything locked, rebooted, locked again after the reboot was complete...kept doing this...I toned the fsb from 120 down to 100...rebooted...still wouldn't work...

went into safe mode, removed the ati drivers...rebooted, reinstalled, and now I'm back.

does the EF70 have BNC connections?
