I have in my system a Mystique 4mb card running Win95, when I play GP2 I
get a clicking noise coming from th PC's internal speaker, this never
happened with my old video card,
Has anyone got any ideas how to fix it.

If you get the latest mystique BIOS (v1.4) this problem will disappear,
you can get it from:

Does the same for mine too, though I only have the 2MB version.  It happened
when I upgraded the BIOS to version 1.3 (from 1.2).  This upgrade fixed
another problem, which was the game would lock up when switching from the VGA
opening video to the SVGA menu.  I guess in light of the severity, I'll take
the "clicking", though it is annoying, and I've informed Matrox a few times.

BTW, it doesn't happen to me if I boot to DOS only...just when run under
Win95, FWIW.
