    The computer I am trying to get this running on is a Toshiba Equium
    3300M. It has a Pentium III with 376MB of RAM.The ProSavage PM133 GPU
    is integrated and the system has no other graphics card. The GPU
    works fine under Win98SE (with drivers) and under Haiku.

    I have tried getting the drivers working on BeOS Pro 5. It installed
    fine (although in black and white, 640x480, since it didnt have any
    drivers) but when I installed the drivers, it would just hang on
    console message "sysinit2: 23". It would boot fine if I told it to
    use the fallback video drivers in the boot loader.

    I also tried BeOS 5 PE Max, which has the drivers for this GPU
    included, but that wouldnt even get to the installed, hanging on the
    same console message. Telling it to boot with the fall back video
    drivers got it to the installer.

    I have also tried 2 different monitors, but it hung at the same place.

    Is there any known fix?



    Have you tried turning it on and off yet?
