Artifacts on Voodoo 4, not overclocked...

[The_Ryz_Factor]

For some weird reason, my Voodoo 4 is giving me artifacts and crashing out of Starsiege Tribes and I don't know why. I am running at 6.5 x 133... my Voodoo 4 PCI is running at default speed. (166 Mhz) For some reason it is giving me artifacts like this. I know, I know, still need to try it at default speed... but the thing is, at 133 FSB my PCI bus is running at its normal speed so I can't see how in the heck this could be affecting it at all. I mean yeah my CPU is overclocked, but it is totally stable in Prime95, no errors at all. CPU temp idle is 38 C. Full load is around 40-42. Anyone have any ideas as to why I am crashing and getting artifacts on the V4? Thx.:beer:

try different drivers

Or updating the bios:D

*edit* the vid card bios that is:p

try changing some bios pci settings. you can try out byte merge, the delayed transaction and pci to dram prefetch. its difficult to analyse a problem without knowing the settings you have but you can safely play with the pci ones you have in the bios.
if you do it post here a reply with the settings you tried out if you still get the artifacts.

Get a better cooler if nons of the above posts work. My voodoo overclocks really well, I got it to run at 198 stable!

Turn AGP fast-writes off.

That too. Ryz, what drivers are you currently running?
