<font face="sans-serif">The MB I've been using has a built in crippled
ATI chip, since the manufacturer didn't see any need to support
OpenGL. Yup, thats right, NO OpenGL support at all. Which means other
than basic menus wine is pretty well stuck not working.<br>
<br>
The MB came with 2 PCIe X4 slots, 2 PCIe X8 slots, and 2 PCI-X/133
slots. You will note, there are NO PCIe X16 video slots. I've tried a
couple of PCIe X16 video cards in the X8 slots and fried the cards. Do
not try that if you have a similar situation. The cards whine and then
let the magic smoke out of the chips. :-))<br>
<br>
I've been told that PCI-X/133 slots are backwards plug in compatible
with vanilla PCI. So I'm willing to try an inexpensive PCI video card,
as long as it supports OpenGL. I'm wondering if anyone would care to
make a recommendation (other than buy a new MB ... I'm not quite there
yet) about a good inexpensive PCI video card. <br>
