And it’s Kate’s last day in York! Woohoo!
I have to move my desk around the office shortly. Unfortunately, my desk is just about at the stage where I start to think about tidying it, but don’t get round to actually doing it for another fortnight. So it’s going to be a mess.
As a matter of interest, has anyone had a problem with PCI cards only being recognised as “early pci non-VGA” devices? I put a wireless network card into a reasonably old win98 computer earlier today and it just wouldn’t recognise the thing, despite the drivers definitely being correct. I tried changing the pci slot, older drivers and even upgrading to win98se, but no joy. I had to leave at this point, and can’t go back until late next week. I tried a cursory google search that turned up little, but haven’t had a good go at diagnosing the problem yet. Just wondering if it’s something anyone’s come across…

Ah, that old chestnut. And by that I mean to say that while I do not recall that particular problem it is almost certainly an old thing due to crappy support way back in the Arden era, half a decade ago in the last millenium…
But, time is good, for now I have a Radeon 9800 Pro in my computer and it seems to be pretty tasty
It seems, hopefully, that installing the latest VIA drivers (assuming that’s the chipset) will solve this particular problem…I’ll try to remember to post back here when I find out
