p96speed on Voodoo 3 problems
« on: July 17, 2006, 02:22:41 PM »
..hi guys!

..before few weeks I have finally got my A1240 an Mediator pci LT4 card + other cards. I run OS 3.5 and p96 in 1280*1024*32 and when I run p96speed test the machine crashes when running "write pixel (8)" test.
I have also problem with speed of screen switching between WB and Dopus (or Cygnus). It takes 3 seconds to redraw it!
 
..I haven`t find enough time to try maybe reinstalling a p96 and upgrade mediator and voodoo drivers (I am going to do that on weekend).. so I will report then.. anyway thanx for any ideas..
..A1200/ElBOX Tower/Blizz1240-40/64 MB/Mediator LT4/VooDoo3/4xEIDE/80GB HDD/Realtek 8xxx/Samsung 17\\" SM711MP LCD TV monitor with SCART-IN for 15kHz stuff.. OS 3.5 + A600 HD new!  
Old things can not get obsoleted.. ;-)

..thanks for Your comments..

I have read on some other forum here that screenswapping is quite slow on Voodoo 3 2000, which has 16MB VRAM only.. unfortunately any lower (non native) resolution looks pretty bad on my LCD monitor..

..so I have installed p96 2.1b, but it fixed nothing (p96 speed utility still crashes on Write Pixel (8) test).. but when I removed SB 128 and deleted its libs and other stuff, it has solved my screen speed switching problem - now I run OS 3.5 at 1280*1024 60Hz with no problem and screens switch lightning fast..    :-)

..well, I think You would surely noticed 2 seconds slowdowns when switching between Your DoPus and WB screens.. now it is good.. but problem with p96 remains and games included with  Warp3D demo just crash my system bringing some weird messages up.. and I have to reboot than..  :roll:

..no, I haven`t.. but that "Gears" test and the other test RUN (but gears is terribly slow IMO).. could you send me Your Warp3D files eventually then?
