Womble

Thanks for the replies. As I said I went to WinME and have found that the Creative Voodoo 2 doesn't work with it. Looking at it I guess the card has reached the end of it's life (as in worn out) and I'm going to have to get a new one. Bum.

Oh well, forget it. I gave up and went to Me.

Hi, Having just got W2000 I've discovered that it doesn't have Direct3d drivers for the Voodoo 2 and neither does Creative or 3dfx. After hours of searching for an answer I found this in the News Archive: Quote: Thanks to Lauri Nenonen for sending me the follow: "Voodoo2 seems to be able to do Glide&GL&Direct3D in Windows 2000 if you first install the hacked NT4 drivers and then use the 'update driver' option in device manager to update the drivers to the new 3dfx beta drivers. I played Half-Life with GL and also tried Final Fantasy VII (Direct3D) which worked after setting the Voodoo2 as the primary display in the display settings. FFVII played fine until I got into a battle and the game hung up. so it works but is buggy." I got the hacked nt file mentioned and uninstalled the voodoo 2 before installing that and then the beta drivers. That didn't work so I got v3.02.02 drivers for nt and installed them first. Still didn't work. Could anyone, especially Lauri if you're around, help me with this? I've just shelled out for a new mobo, processor and hard drive and I really don't want to spend more on a 3d card - especially as I don't do that much 3d gaming. TIA
