Ian, << Pentiums and problems..>> Repost #2.. "Jonas, Gary, and ALL We were also having trouble with Gateway 2000 P5-90 running slower than a Gateway 2000 P5-60 (we posted one of the original problems). After reading your "repost" and trying out a few things, the key to improving our P5-90 performance was removing power.exe from the config.sys file. Increasing FILES to 100 and BUFFERS to 40 made some improvement, but the real benefit came from removing power.exe execution. Jonas, here is the information we have to help everyone in their comparisons. Will you be posting this information soon? chevy.3ds rendered 640×480 in 3D Studio 3.0 with Metal & Camera03 —————————————————————– SYSTEM RENDER AVAILABLE USED SWAP PAGE (POSTED BY) TIME MEMORY MEMORY FILE FAULTS ———————— —— ——— ——- —— —— Gateway 2000 P5-60 2:36 39260 15012 0 0 ATI Mach32 PCI w/ 2MB 40MB RAM Vibrant Driver (Scott D. 76646,2566) Gateway 2000 P5-90 1:50 14812 14812 496 612 ATI Mach64 PCI w/ 2MB 16MB VESA Driver (Scott D. 76646,2566) We'll try to get numbers to you after the Vibrant 1.0.3 drivers are installed, since they support the Mach64.
