- I have run across a nice reproducable bug. If you run the PC Mag Windows
- Benchmarks version 2.0, and run the BitBlt ROP test, the system will stop
- displaying about half way thru the test. My hardware configuration is: 486/50
- symphony chipset motherboard with 256k cache/16 MB ram, video seven vram ii
- running at 1024x768, Logitech series 9 mouse plugged into a Microsoft InPort
- card, 2 x 200 MB IDE disks, 1 Adaptec 1542B SCSI controller with a Maxtor 1.2
- GB disk, a Sony 541 CDROM, and a Archive Python DAT tape. Other boards in the
- system are a Western Digital 8013EBT ethernet card, and a Media Vision ProAudio
- Spectrum 16. While running the benchmarks, one of the test bitmaps will be
- displayed partially inverted (or very wrong colors). A few ROP codes later, the
- mouse stops responding. If you move the mouse, there is disk activity on drive
- C: and then later, event log entries say the mouse has an overrun. I have also
- seen the system crash with the whole screen displayed in inverse colors (or
- something very wrong). The system runs Win 3.1 just fine. Anytime you get a
- 8514 or S3 driver in stable form, feel free to share it with us. - Jan
