HELP!
Back to GPL after a few weeks away and suddenly the graphics are a mess.
Initial screen is OK; but after that it is a headache inducing blur of
flashing graphics. I have a Diamond Voodoo2 and have recently installed new
drivers. I have the 7a DirectX drivers and the latest patch for GPL; but
somewhere along the line something is incompatible.

I have tried re-installing, but still no joy.

Any advice very gratefully received
Thanks
Hugh

Check if oyu got 'Force triple color buffering for glide apps' checked. If
so, uncheck it!
Youll find it in control panel -> display -> Voodoo2 tab -> advanced
settings.

Bjorn
I did! I haven't now! It's fixed!
Thanks! Must have changed the options for me when I updated the drivers.
Cheers
Hugh
