I am a whistler Expert take my advice wait until Beta 1
Wow that's some EXPERT edvice. He knows his stuff. Just kiding . All most all have had more trouble with 2250 not 2257. Did you change the bios anyway or maybe added a new card? Something to look in to
alright, i'm demanding that thegrants gets his ip banned from this forum...anyone agree?
actually no, i'll act like a baby just like him, here it goes.
thegrants, you are a fag and a dickhead.
ok..on a different note..
Try to remove all your ISA stuff and reset bios defaults and then install. It worked for me
------------------
Whistler is or will be better than Windows 2000, if you don't think so, get a reality check and hope it doesn't bounce.

I am also an Expert yes wait for beta 1
Sorry jdulmage I couldnt help it. Anyway, I thought it was like this, if the detection hangs the computer and you restart the installation it checks the log and see where it stopped, skipping that part?

Whistler 2250 never had any probs.
Any suggestions?

Yes? Why? Do I need a new video card?

Try the follow:
Remove 3dfxvs2k.inf/3dfxvs2k.pnf from the \windows\inf directory.
