hey, i just was annoyed at the super old beos v3 post september 2003
. i have max v3.
okay- beos cannot boot on durons, athlons or anything older from amd from that. beos also cannot boot like 1.5Ghz computers. there are pacthes for it, but they didnt work for me.
so beos is best to be install on older sub 1ghz computers. it goes really fast. it also has quake II and quake I . no gl hardware accel tho. the new v3.1 has the pacthes so try it and it could very well work out on those newer machines.
sound blaster 5.1oem or similar dont work but the Ensoniq and audigy 2 work.

Thanks.

Why doesn't it work with the newer processors?

MrX:
well, partly because amd made an error on the cpu that calls it an intel instead of an amd, so i freeses up beos. but the new version when you install it it should be able to work.

Kintaro:
I downloaded it, and the installer froze, I might give whatevers stable ago (3.0 I guess)

MrX:
what cpu did you use?\
