GPL/Voodoo 5 Help

by Dean » Sun, 23 Mar 2003 20:32:37

I recently replaced Voodoo 3 card with Voodoo 5, however Gpl screens at
higher resolution not appearing properly and is worse that Voodoo 3. Any
ideas on getting to function correctly. Are there any known issues? Running
on AMD 1.4,  256mb, Driver version 4.12.01.0543. Card seems to function
properly in other applications. Any help appreciated!

I'm afraid that I don't own GPL, so my help may be limited. I did a search
through Yahoo and pulled up something that may cater to your needs.

I apologize if the information contained isn't what you were looking for.

If you haven't done so already, you might want to search usenet to see if
you can pick up any relevant info concerning your problem.

Make sure tripple buffering is disabled.  If that doesn't help, try
these drivers:
http://www.3dgw.com/drivers/drivers.php3?driver=voodoo5

You might also ask in the "GPL" or "Tech Help" section at:
http://forum.racesimcentral.com/
