VooDoo 2 question

by dragl.. » Mon, 23 Nov 1998 04:00:00

I'm having trouble playing GPL now that I've installed my VooDoo2
12mb.  Once installed, I changed the game video mode to 3dfx
and the track now appears completely black and flashes.  

I'm running a AMD K6-2 350mhz with 128megs of dram.  I'm using
a Matrox Productiva G100 8mb video accelrator along with the
VooDoo2.  Any assitance would be appreciated.

You should download the most recent drivers for your specific Voodoo2 card.
Solved the same problem with me and countless others.  I think it has to do
with DirectX overwriting the existing drivers.  But make sure they're the
most recent (most often it'll be the only ones there...).
