Cool

I just installed a 3d blaster riva tnt2 ultra card. I can't find any info on whether or not the bios setting for video ram cachable should be enabled or disabled. Any ideas out there?

I don't know about your card specifically, however Hercules recommends that it be turned off for their Geforce cards--
they also recommend the following:

PCI/VGA Palette Snoop - Disabled
Video ROM BIOS Shadow - Disabled
Video RAM Shadow - Disabled
C8000 - DFFFF - All memory ranges should be Disabled
AGP Aperture Size - Half of your total amount of main system RAM, however you should try different settings
Video Memory Cache Size - UC
PNP OS Installed - YES
Assign IRQ to VGA - YES
Resources Controlled By - AUTO

Help this provides some ideas
