    Has anyone got this combination working?
    Im not impressed with ATI, the install is abysmall and the computer will
    only boot into safe mode, a boot into normal mode results in random graphics
    and lockups.
    The 5000 has a VIA 82C586A chipset and AMP CPU,
    possibly not the best match in the computing world. Im going to try and
    update the VIA drivers.

    I got a Presario 5000 WV series working, first upgrade the Compaq Bios to
    3/28/02 then the latest Radeon drivers for the card, that should work. The
    drivers were fussy, had to install and reboot around 3 times. OS was win Me

    A possibality: My 5000 had no case fan stock, and that bad boy got
    hot inside overheating like crazy. Add some cooling, see if that
    helps.
