The early 5V AGP slots won't accept the newer 3.3 and 1.5V cards. You *can*
physically fit the cards but only by turning them round and fitting them
backwards. I can't, in all honesty, recommend it ;-)

Wuh? Why do you say this? All (new) AGP slots should support 1/2/4/8x
- even the old ones should be backwards compatible, unless you have a
brand spanking new graphics card.

When you say Q2 freezes, does it ever actually run? Or does it just
display the first frame and then freeze? Could be power related.. Does
the 5700 have a molex connector on it? I had an ATI card that era, so
can't remember if they had them then ;)
