Problems with Installing GPL on Banshee machine

by (Raymond, ACT LABS » Wed, 22 Dec 1999 04:00:00

Hello,
It seems everyone here know tons about GPL, so here goes.  I tried to
install GPL on one of my home computers with a Banshee card.  After
trying to start the game, I would see the intro screen, but after a
while, I would get bounced out to my desktop.  Any ideas?
The system in question:
P2-450
320 megs RAM
Abit BH-6
Creative Banshee Blaster
SB Live Value
Adaptec 2940AU SCSI card
Yamaha cdr6416
Asus 36X CD-ROM
WD 27.3 Gig (7200 spin) Expert
Fujitsu 17.3 Gig (5400 spin)
Fujitsu 8.4 Gig (5400)
Link Pro 10 base NIC
Diamond SupraMax
D-link 5 port USB hub
MS DSS 80 Speakers, and some normal, non-digital speakers.  
ACT LABS Force RS
ACT LABS Force RS Shifter
ACT LABS GS

Just did a fresh install of Win98 SE.

OK, so I didn't have to list EVERYTHING, but I am a hardware junkie
and like the look of my list on my test machine.   :)

I have a monster fusion (banshee) and it works perfect with gpl 1.2 and last
3dfx dx7 and opengl drivers

just download 3dfx drivers at www.3dfxgamers.com and gpl 1.2 at www.papy.com

I have a question, why you don't upgrade to a v3, your machine will by now
perfect

Thanks guys.  I will try the 3dfx reference drivers.  
I don't have a V3 on that machine because I am waiting for an Asus
V6800 Deluxe.  I know it doesn't have Glide support, but I have the
luxury of Glide on another machine.  I also play a lot of FPS and like
the framerates and the better colour that the TNT boards offer.  IMO.
I have already installed gpl 1.2, but am using the Creative drivers
now.  Will try the reference ones.
