Jedi Academy in Voodoo 3 2000(8MB)!!!!!!!(updated)

[Obi-Wan Kenobi]

well here the words of a real Jedi Master

medium" "Geometric Detail" and "medium" "Texture Detail" with resolution set to 1024x768, because the pixels are smaler and which the image quallity improves drasticly, but then again 8 frames per sec is just way too slow to play a game with I rather get my Voodoo5 5500 AGP and then the 40 frames per sec or more is achievable. anyway on a Raddy X800XT PE it/s better.

but anyway good work that you got it runn'n on your V3 2K 8MB man, The Force Is With You young Jedi Knight.

Thank you, master Obi-Wan Kenobi.
And may the force be with you too!!!!!!!!!!!![^]

Teff:
i think a faster CPU will certainly helps you a lot...
y not consider update ur CPU to a Celeron 900/1G or even Tualatin Celeron 1.4GHz?
with a slocket, everything will be nice..

Well, if i remember, this is a mobo with a V3 onboard and the chipset would be an Intel ZX.
I don't think that it's possible to install a cpu more powerful that 1 ghz but anyway, you're right with an other cpu (a slot 1) some things would be easier even if not perfect.

OK!
If I have money..........

A Celeron 1.4GHz with Powerleap Slot-T is probably the most powerful combination for the mainboard
but Teff, i have a Coppermine celeron 900 Socket 370, if you want, you can always contact me for FREE, as we both live in Hong Kong. (just make sure that you can find a Slot->socket converter)

nightbird:
it's never a problem in upgrading a 100FSB BX/ZX mainboard.
mine is also a Slot 1, 100FSB BX mainboard
i get myself a VIA C3 1GHz(133FSB), a Tualatin converter and a slocket
just underclock the FSB and increase the ratio to 14.5, i have a 1.45GHz VIA C3
anyway, it's not fast at all, just a lot faster than my old PII 350

[ps47]

..its because the c3 cpus are SLOW. 1.45GHz c3 would be something like p3 800MHz..

[secretfj]

yes..
it's below my old burnt Celeron 600 @ 1.08GHz
i know C3 will run much faster @ 133FSB, but my board dun support it..anything above 100 will give a system crash and reboot..
anyway, i can live with that (until i can get a Dual Core Athlon 64 and mATX mainboard)

the bios of the mobo

[Rolo01]

Thats right, the bios is critical.
Some board will accept an unkown CPU ( like a tualatin ), others will simply not start.
An example of a board that runs almost everything is the Asus P2B, it runs a Celeron-1400 as PentiumII-1200, but flawless.

[secretfj]

for this, my board always shows a error on the start page..
but after pressing F1 letting it to continue, it just runs smoothly

for the MS-6168, seems its silent mode skips a lot of checking..a 80GB HDD will make the system hang in normal booting mode showing the POST screen, but if you turn that "lovely" PAckard logo on when boot up (i.e. the silent mode), the HDD will be accepted flawlessly...maybe the same can be applied on the CPU, i don't know...my friend just thrown his computer away before i know it(exactly  the one with MSI-6168 mainboard
