No, the onboard is something else, SIS i think. The nvidia card is an agp, and the ATI is the PCI one. It's kind of a moot point now considering that i'm getting a new card soon anyway but i'd like to continue using the old one for other machines.
Could be ram, last time i had the card in it didn't do this but this time all the sudden the comp thinks it has 480mb of ram instead of 512. I suppose whatever is messing w/ the ram could be doing it to my games too.
Well it's almost 5 years old and been running pretty much constantly. I wouldn't be surprised if it's just falling apart inside.
Would at least explain how my ram went from 512 to 480.
Well so far the sound problems haven't abated despite numerous arrangements and driver updates. What worries me more than those, though, is the way i get 100+fps with nobody around but it sharply drops into the 20's and 10's the moment any action starts.
a 9200, even a PCI one, should be able...
And turns out that accomplished about as much as microsoft's IE updates. I'm at a loss, nobody else i've talked to has a clue as to why this is happening. if this keeps up i'm going to see if i can get a replacement card from ATI.
Slight update: just updated my sound card drivers and deleted a BUNCH of old unused display adapters. Going to try moving the vidcard to the first PCI slot and see if that helps any. moving the soundcard to the third did wonders for sound quality (crazy as that sounds), maybe this will work.
Report gave me this on soundcard:
Creative SB Live! series(WDM) 3512.0.0.0
heres what i got from the reg program:
Creative SB Live! Sound Card
Bus Type PCI
Bus / Device / Function 0 / 16 / 0
Device ID 1102-0002
Subsystem ID 1102-8069

Fast...
Okay, since i've been trying to get a solution to this for almost a month now i've got this pretty much down to a copy/paste affair.
