Radeon 8500 series?

[Tony Pacc]

I have a older Dell 1Gig P3 Pentium,with a 8500 Radeon ,just recently got a
flat panel Samsung 930B monitor which is really Great,I am running it in DVI
mode.I have Win 98 SE,I cant seem to run 3d pipes screensaver without it
freezing up,it will run for awhile then I get black vertical lines and
freezes,I tried installing Directx 9c but did not help,tried different ATI
drivers,never had this before when I had my old crt monitor. Thanks

For what it's worth I don't think Pipes uses DirectX. It might be OpenGL.
In the Settings dialog for rthis screen saver I think there is a display
options section, where you could experiment with resolution etc.

You could try a VGA to DVI adapter in case its a hardware fault on your
cards DVI output.
