I have the GeForce III, Titanium 200. I have the newest Bios for my PC, and have an A-bit BH-6 motherboard. The video card fits into the brown slot on the board. I have 384 MB memory and am running P3 450.
The trouble: My games minimize on startup, almost as though they were crashing. When they are selected to maximize from the desktop tray, they run fine after that. This happens 90% of the time. Once, I tried running a demo of a game with high intensity graphics. The first try of the sample was choppy and the sound came on and off. The second attempt proved 100% successful.
Now, I thought that maybe I should go into my Bios configuration by selecting the programming page upon boot-up of my machine. I selected to have all things returned to default setup, since I had a frined over messing with the configuation a month ago. Now, when the PC boots up, it will not go past that screen without telling me that changes have occured, and that I should either enter setup or continue on with F1. I choose F1, and Windows boots.
What the flip is going on?
I had a frined suggest to down size the video card fro 32bit to 16bit, to see if that improved my gaming trouble, but he had no idea about the Bios changes unless I needed to turn on the Plug and Play feature...
I am in unknown territory messing with this stuff. It is over my head. Any suggestions are valuable.
