I replaced my Diamond Monster II with a Voodoo 3 3000 AGP.  Now I get jerky
performance in Sports Car GT and Toca 2.... worse than I used to get from a
Monster II..... what gives ????  Anybody else getting dropped frames with
these games.  YES YES, I have latest drivers, the Jan 27th ones.  They
suck... cause my mouse pointer to go nuts at times.

Sorry but I've had the opposite experience. I used to have SLI'd Monster
II's and now have a Voodoo 3 3000 AGP. Things are better now, with better
performance and fewer lockups. You may want to take a look at
http://www.voodoo3users.cjb.net/ for troubleshooting tips.

I noticed the same thing with my V3 3000. Yes, I have everything except
systray and explorer turned off but I still see that blasted stuttering in
N3. When I put my trusty old CL Blaster Voodoo2 SLI rig back in, everything
is smooth as butter. If you find a fix let us know please.
