I think I got it working, I just sucked it up and did the driver juggle game. Got it working with the latest drivers now. Also I had a fan/heatsink lying around. So no big deal there either.
It just seems odd my mobo didn't work with the lastest agp drivers /shrug.
Yea, its kinda jumpy. /sigh But I've been playing for about 3 hours and no mushroom cloud. The one that used to work the best for me was 6.14.10.6430. The one I have now is 8.xxxxxxxx.
*edit* I'm a goober, for some reason my max frames was set to 40 in EQ.
