I installed Viper Racing and am rapt in it.

I have a problem with the graphics though, I get clear blue triangles on the
tracks and some of the scenery, not a major thing just annoying.

I have an AMD K6-300 3D CPU, 64 Mb DRam and Monster Voodoo2 12 Meg graphics
card.

anyone else experiencing this problem? and if so have they found a cure?

Thanks

Uh, actually, this is what _fixed_ the problem for me :)

I installed the beta DirextX 6 drivers from 3dfx.com and the triangles
went away!
