Hi all, I have a Pentium 166, 32 MB RAM, Matrox Millenium. Is there an advantage in using Univbe? Will it increase the frame rate?

However, I have to disable it to run GP2 or it scrambles the screen. It might be my fault, but since it works so well with every other DOS and Win95 application I use, I am assigning blame to SDD. Maybe you'll have better luck than I have. Bryan

The only game I've had problems with was EF2000 and I had to disable 5.2 before it was ok. P166 with an ET4000-W32p. Tony

If your Millennium's BIOS is up to date, you won't see any improvement in any games by using UniVBE. I had seen improvements in some games with UniVBE, but after I upgraded the BIOS (to 2.0 from 1.5) and did some comparisons, I found there was no longer an advantage to running it.
