Yes, sure you have some spear one from the ATX power supply.
Or take a closer look of what I got ^^

It seems just my luck to have my favourite 3 games refused to run at
anything higher than 1024¡Ñ768, my other DX8 game do not have such
problem -_-
By the way, you may not find those DX8 games run much faster (the result
from 3DMark01 proved that). But you can used 4¡Ñ anti-aliasing without
slower the game too much.
Hope this help.
