I also own the ATI Mach 64 with 4 MB, the VESA LB version. I am running on a TriStar DX2-66. I am having the delay getting into 3DS 3 and the delay to the materials editor that everyone else is experience. In addition I am also having the Windows lock up problem. One other thing that I notice when I go into 3DS is that while the program is initially loading, after a few seconds, the top portion of the screen about a quarter of the screen will scramble for a few seconds, while the bottom portion remains stable. Then the whole screen will stabilize and 3D Studio will begin. Also when I initially did my 3DS VIBCFG, I tried to have 1280 x 1024 with 16 million colors on my rendering screen, but I got "Error 1933:BIOS does not support this mode" followed by the statemet that my board may not have enough memory. It has 4MB, and will configure to 1280 X 1024 with 65,000 colors which also has a 4MB requirement. What is the problem?
