AMD Athlon Compatibility:
-------------------------
There are known compatibility issues with the Montego A3Dxstream and AMD
Athlon based computers. These include AMD Athlon processors with AMD-750
or VIA KX133 chipsets.
AMD maintains a hardware compatibility list for Athlon processors.
You may view this list online at www.amd.com
* We recommend upgrading your Montego A3DXstream to the newer Santa Cruz
for use with newer Athlon based computers.
AMD-K6, AMD-K6-2 Compatibility:
-------------------------------
There are known compatibility issues with AMD processors that use the VIA MVP3
or MVP4 chipset implementation on some motherboards. These problems stem from
using an AGP video card with any PCI sound card.
To resolve these issues, we recommend the following steps:
1. Update the chipset with patches available from VIA.

We suggest installing the VIA "4-in-1" driver. This contains four separate
drivers for the complete range of Microsoft operating systems. The 4-in-1
Smart Function auto detects your operating system and driver requirements,
installing the appropriate drivers.
NOTE: For installation assistance, please contact VIA Technical Support.
2. Check with your motherboard manufacturer and see if they have released any
updated drivers or BIOS for your particular motherboard that may address
these issues.
After performing any updates, reinstall your Turtle Beach sound card drivers.
