I have 2-12 meg V2 Monsters running in SLI and I cannot get Nascar 2 to work
with the 3dfx patch installed. When I had 1 12 meg V2 it worked fine,
however I am unable to get it running in my current configuration. Any
ideas??

This is a hunch, and it may not work, but it's something to try...

Right click on the "nas3dfx.exe" icon in your Nascar2 directory, and
select "properties". Hit the "Screen" tab and select "Full Screen" under
"usage" if it's not already selected.

Please let me know if this works or not.

Thanks,

Trips

Not sure, since I just have 1 Creative 12 megger, and it works fine on that
one - but you might try to go to the Voodoo 2 tab in Display Properties, go
to Advanced, and check Disable SLI auto-detect.  The only other thing I can
think of, is make sure in the same menu that Triple Buffering is disabled,
that caused it to wig out on mine.  That may have gotten enabled sometime
during a driver update or the installation of the other card.

Good luck!

    I know what your problem is Dennis.  You need to open up your case
again, romove one of the 3dfx cards, and then, send one to me!  You see,
Nascar2 will be working just fine and I'll be as happy as ever.

    Good luck!
