I have a Gforce2MX and turned on FSAA to see what it was all about. GPL
looked great and I could get it to run pretty good but when launching it
from VROC it just crashes out and refuses to run. It works fine without the
FSAA. Wierd! Ne1 else come accross this problem? Is there a line in a config
file somwhere that is making it do this?

I have the exact same problem and have only found the exact same
solution, meaning that it is only playable without FSAA on VROC. Too
bad, as 800x600 4xFSAA looks much better than 1024x768 without it.

Yes and you can get them very cheap because there's no future technical
suport and they wont work with P4's
hehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehe ;-)

Seriously though I'm thinking about getting one to replace my GF1 untill the
NV20 comes along.

also FSAA with vroc don't work for me too.

  Oh so NOW you're going to quibble about lack of support, and no new
drivers...haahaha.  Actually, the V4 works with a P4  just not the V5.
Not to worry tho....If you can afford a P4 you can afford a new vid card
too.

   They are being pulled off major retailers shelves tho, everything 3dfx is
gone from buy.com now, wonder what the heck they are doing with them.  I'd
buy a $100 agp V5 in a flash, pci V5s are already below $100 on ebay.

Throwing em in the trash can i think... Nvidia dont want to support warranty on
a dead company's inventory.
