98SE doesn't handle over 512 well at all. This might be your only problem.
Also make sure you have updated your bios on the new motherboard.

Even at 512MB my machine ran a bit weird. Dropping down to 256MB fixed that for the most part, though.

Are you sure it's a P3 1.3? I didn't think they made one of those...

Umm did you just stick to the default video card settings? Win98 may have detected your card and it may be 'working' but if you don't install the proper dedicated video drivers, the performance will be lousy with the default video.

The P3 line didn't stop until the 1.4Ghz chip. That was the end of the line.
Re: the video drivers, I downloaded the latest drivers directly from ATI. I'm going to try droping it to 512Mb tonight and see what happens.

You're right. But they also made a P4 1.3 which would be quite a bit slower... Even worse if it's one of the early P4's with no cache. They were also hamstrung with regular sdram...
