referance drivers available for the Voodoo Banshee boards although they
recommend using the drivers from the individual manufacturers.

I only loaded my Banshee last night and used the latest drivers from
Creative. So far so good, and a huge improvement over the V2/Intel 740
combination I removed.

Does anyone know which banshee drivers are the best for GPL? Ive tried the
quake II compatible ones , but they  have a prob which shows when changing
between menu and car, where I get a green flash. Ive also tried the latest
drivers from 3DFX and the Creative ones, all which work ok, but are there
others and if so which are the best? (give best FPS, color etc?)

I have a Creative 3D Blaster Banshee with 16mbSDRam, running at 115Mhz, oh
which reminds me, i cant get the card to run at more than 120Mhz, when i set
to 125 and reboot, it sets itself straight back to 100Mhz.Is there anyway to
resolve this? Thats using the Creative drivers, the 3DFX ones dont have this
option as far as Ive seen.
All decent advice appreciated, thanks

I remember from billsworkshop.com, wich used to be a banshee help site, that
the CL banshee would not be oc 'able over 110-115, and all kinds of
disasters happened to peolpe who tried, as melting cards, ruined hardrives
and the like. So I never went above that, as i like to have other people do
the experimenting and the crashing, and learn from their experiences ;-)
Later I saw a rumour that the CL banshees were oc'able higher but as i never
could verify this I never went above 110.  The 3dfx drivers allow you to set
something else faster too, but I do not know what it is.  ANyway I am happy
as it is with my 110, and GPL does not go faster than 36 fps anyway.
