New World Record - V6k AGP2PCI - WinXP.

I got an AGP2PCI adapter and with the new driver from Koolsmoky I tried my Intel system with a Core2duo and the V6k. Here goes some test: Passed the 5000 points wall.

Intel Core2Duo 6600
Change-AGP2PCI
Voodoo5-6000 3700A AGP @195MHz
3DMark2001SE
WinXP SP2
Koolsmoky Beta

ps. Pity about PCI to PCI BRIDGE limitation. It does not support 66MHz bus. I tried the AGP2PCI on PCI-X slot but it works to 33MHz. With V6k + AGP2PCI + PCI 66MHz. The card could reach 6000points...

Very very good score!
Voodoo5 6000 rocks!!!

If your V56K has the Hint HB1-SE66 PCI-PCI bridge, the V56K itself is capable of running 66MHz. Bit 5 of the PCI status register will be set to 1 and will show that the bridge is 66MHz capable to the system. Additionally, you need to supply the M66EN signal to the mainboard to run 66MHz on the PCI bus. You probably need to modify the AGP2PCI riser card to supply the M66EN signal to the mainboard. For starters, check if the M66EN pin is connected to GND or not.

Hi Kool,

Yes, my V6k card has the Hint HB1-SE66.

Quotethe V56K itself is capable of running 66MHz. Bit 5 of the PCI status register will be set to 1 and will show that the bridge is 66MHz capable to the system.

Where Can I check it?

Thanks,

No, you need to do a hardware mod on the AGP2PCI riser card. Read my previous post carefully and do what I suggested.

Ok, so I will need help. Where is the M66EN pin? On the AGP2PCI? I have checked the AGP2PCI but I have not found M66EN.

Thanks,

Pin 49 on side B of the AGP2PCI riser card needs to be pulled-up to operate in 66MHz. Connecting it to GND signals the mainboard to run 33MHz. So for starters, check if the pin is connected to GND or not.

Isolate the riser card from the system and V56K before doing the checks. You have been warned.

@koolsmoky,

Check it,



Does Is it correct?

Cheking side B AGP2PCI.

I tried on the side B with the multimeter and PIN 49 and it is not connected to 'Ground'.

Thanks,
Oscar

The pin marked in red is not pin 49.

Thanks KoolSmoky,
PIN 49 and it's not connected to 'Ground'.

Are pins 46 and 49 on side B connected?

No.

Oscar

Then trace the lines from pin 49 and find where they connect to.

-KoolSmoky

Looking at your pic, if you trace the line from pin 49 side B, there's an IVH going from side B to A right above pin 48 side B. I bet it connects to pin 48 side A. Which means pin 49 side B is connected to GND.

What you need to do now is isolate pin 49 side B and connect it to a pullup resitor to Vcc.
