Default Something kind of stupid.

I got an old video card from a near by computer shop.
He advised me not to put it in here, or I could burn out
my board.
There's more then one thing wrong with that.
I've got a Geforce 6200 in here.
And.
I'm not putting an old 3.3 Volt in a 1.5 Volt slot.
I did however put a 1.5 in a 3.3 slot. I had the 6200
in an old slot a system. And guess what, I got a pretty
good rating off of it.
I really like this 2000+ but I'd like to get a 3200 in here.


:-)

Fievel.

The keying on AGP video cards, will protect you in most situations.

You can get some information here, on chipsets and AGP video cards.
