zuko1 Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 I'v managed to get a Nvidia 7600 GS working on windows 98 With 98 to ME installed and nothing else but the modded Nvidia drivers I'v tested it with games and overclocked it with the Nvidia software that came with the driver and all is well. I thought this was impossible? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zuko1 Posted July 13, 2011 Author Share Posted July 13, 2011 It's an AGP 7600 which i'v tried to install on countless 98 boxes and failed every time so i was quite suprised to see it work on this old Pentium 3 1 GHZ machine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hande89 Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 Were you able to use true color? I only get 256 color depth with these drivers. If I try to set any higher depth I'll see Windows protection error (or just a black screen if I choose to not restart for settings to take effect).

zuko1 Posted September 6, 2011 Author Share Posted September 6, 2011 Yes, true colour 32 bit and overclocking was working perfectly which is strange to me as it's an AGP card and it's only ever worked on this rig. It's a good card Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TmEE Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 (edited) I once had that card and while I could get it working it was very unstable, whenever I tried to run anything DOS the driver went completely crazy and I had to reboot to gain functionality back. I could no longer shut down or reboot into MS-DOS. Regular reboot did work though Edited September 7, 2011 by TmEE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zuko1 Posted September 8, 2011 Author Share Posted September 8, 2011 It runs extremely stable and DOS is not a problem whatsoever on this P3 1GHZ. As i said earlier, this card would work only with 256 color on 1 of my pc's or not at all on the other pc's i have. I was wondering if it's because i used 982me on this box that it worked as i didn't use it on the others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
