Has anyone got this darn thing to run on thier Banshee?..i've downloaded
the demo but everytime I try to run the darn thing it craps out on
me....it reads the exe file...both of them....comes with a d3d and a
voodoo exe file...but dies on me before it even brings up a
screen...I've been to the Ubisoft site and read the FAQ's and did what
they ask...still NADA...even got the patch thinking that may
work...still NADA....if any help...i'd appreciate it...thanks!!

I went through the same thing with the full install, the only way I can get
it to run with the Banshee is to run it in D3D.  If I use the large 3DFx
install it craps out, If I use the large D3D install it works, but it
doesn't look as good as it does in glide on my other machine.  Still lots of
fun though, IMHO.

Although I cannot help you I can say that it runs fine with my PCI Banshee.

I've had no luck getting it to work with my Monster Fusion.  I've
downloaded all the patches, tried all the drivers.  Tried Ubisoft Tech
Support, no dice.  I gave up on it.

Yep,

I've got it running, monster fusion! with the latest (1.09) patch and it
might be that there's a banshee patch wait....nope there isn't. So
that's all I did. Make sure though not to select triple buffering in
your glide settings it will distort the screens.
Btw, my sys is celery 300A/monster fusion AGP/64meg/creative soundcard

I've got the same setup, and I can get it to run fine once or twice, but
then I'll go back to run it a few days later and I get an error - can't
remember the exact error, but something along the lines of my install (large
3dfx) is not compatible with my video setup.

If I reinstall, using the same installation, it then works fine again... for
a few days. Anyone having this problem?

Thanks,
Keith
