Anyone out there having problems with running GP2 and Matrox Mystique 3d
video card? The intro runs then it just dies..... anyone out there got
any ideas??? I am going into GP withdrawl.

Try using the video:vesa switch at the command line when running GP2.
That
fixed it with me.

Hi,

Go to Matrox www-page and retrieve the new bios 1.3 update

I purchased a Mystique and took it back the next day.  I had the same
problem you do.  If you go to low res mode, (look in the manual), it will
play the game.  There seems to be some problem with the VESA driver.  I
did actually get it to work but not reliably.  

                                        Hope you get it working.   DAN

Go to the matrox web and download the bios upgrade to ver. 1.3, it fixed
my locked up problem in GP2, so it should fix yours too.

Bye

Hi, Norm

        I had the same problem. It seems to be cured now. I've went to the
Matrox site:
 www.matrox.com
and downloaded the
 bios130.zip file

Hope it works for you--
