Motherboard with VIA chipset specially in combination with GPL, N3, F1rs2.

Running GPL just fine on a Abit KA7 (VIA based).

I'd be VERY surprised if any application/game gave you grief because of
the chipset, it's more likely drivers that will have problems.

Cheers,

Steve.

Athlon800, Abit KA7 here.  running fine (a tad warm, maybe!), although I
could not get my Voodoo2 to play ball :-(   (so running G400 instead)

I think that compatibility issues are more or less a thing of the past -
they were rare back in the Pentium clone days, and even rarer now.

I can state you'll have no problems running GPL with an Athlon, as I do
it.  I'd be very surprised if any of the other games you mention would not
work either.

Cheers,

Steve.

I just got gpl working on my brand new P3/800, with Geforce ddr, and
Via694 chipset
not a problem at all......
Except for me thinking i had lost all my setups agter transfering the
game from my oldt to my new comp, overwriting the
installation......turns out i still had trainers
selected....lolololol....not funny took me about an hour......
