Nascar 4 looks great!  Too bad I can only race a few laps until my computer
locks up tight.  Any ideas on how to fix my problems?

My system:
AMD Thunderbird 1000MHz
ASUS A7V MB
256  RAM
Voodoo 4 - 4500 AGP
Creative Labs SB 128 PCI
Win 98 SE
DX 8.0

Have you already installed the latest VIA 4-in-1 drivers?

They are updated drivers for the VIA KT133 chipset which is used on your MB.

I have one good question and one stupid question................

Can you please give me the link to the 1005 bios?

And how do I update them once I d/l them? This is the mb I have.......

A7V PC133/VC133 200MHz FSB AGP Pro/4x Socket A

I'm not nearly as knowledgable about all this hardware as some of you
are, so your help is greatly appreciated.

I may be wrong but I think this live update utility will do it
automatically. If thats not it email me and I'll explain it in more detail.

**** Post for FREE via your newsreader at post.usenet.com ****

www.viatech.com.  The drivers link is on the right side of the page.

The latest RELEASE version is 4.25a.

There are a ton of places that have 'Leaked' versions running up as far as
4.28, but I recommend you avoid them.
