    Thanks Himself.

    I'd like to take a quick poll of VIA users:

    Do you uninstall the old VIA drivers before updating?

        Use to,but it seems Via has improved the install,so it just updates the old.
        I still avoid the busmastering from Via,windows does a better job.
        In addition,many people had problems when installing/using it.
        Thanks,Himself.

          You're welcome.

          I generally install over them, no problems to report. If it were someone else's machine I'd clear the old ones first.

                    "I think bm is enabled and working ok"

                    That's what I really hate about VIA. Nothing is for sure Can't wait to replace my KX133 chipset with the upcoming AMD or Micron chipsets.
