Hardware Question

Sorry not sure where to put this so appologies if its in the wrong forum.

 

I currently have a voodoo 3 3500 and plan on getting the Gold version of XP ASAP (currently have RC1) I know the V3 isn't supported so I will need a new card, however money is tight.

I was thinking of getting this card: Creative GeForce 2 PRO but wanted some advice if it was worth it, I play alot of FPS games with the occasional flight sim.

 

Thanks.

Nvidia has excellent win2k/xp drivers for their geforce2 cards.

I went ahead and bought it, just installed the Win2K drivers in XP and it works beutiflly

 

Now if only i could get the quicktweak application to launch on start-up I will be happy

NVidia has a new driver for that card (version 21.81), you can get it here http://www.nvidia.com/us/ie/pg000010.htm

Once installed you can activate the quicktweak icon in the taskbar going to display properties (right click ot the desktopand chose properties) > settings > advanced > GForce2GTS > additional properties > desktop utilities. Have fun!!!
