OK, I'm gonna call it now: the 4.31 4in1 drivers FIXED the corruption problem on the VA503+ with Windows 2000. I have had NO ZERO NONE corruption since installation, even though I had two power outages while using the PC. <br><br>Via now has their 4in1 version 4.32 out, but there's NO way I'm gonna try them since what I have works now, and works well. I'd still SSS benching in the 17,000+ range.<br><br>My VA503+ K6-3+ Win2k combo is now COMPLETELY stable. I have not had a single crash, bug, freeze or ANYTHING at all go wrong. It doesn't get any more solid than this. The only reason I ever reboot is to go into Linux. My friend has a Duron+AbitKT7Araid combo -- and while it's HELLA fast, it crashes all over the place. I'll take the stability over speed any day. <p></p><i></i>

...also, be sure that when you pick up the 4in1, you get the set SPECIFICALLY LABLED as being for the MVP3 chipset! <p></p><i></i>
