Is there somehow a way to get f1 2002 to work with a voodoo 5 5500 agp. It seems that this game has no support for this card. Gp4 works oke, but with all the comments in this newsgroup that f1 2002 is better I would like to find out myself. however f1 2002 won't run. If there is anyway to let it run let me know. Thanks. Alex

I managed to get the demo to run on my V5...but it always crashed on exiting. Not a huge problem, but annoying. It was also not particularly fast or good looking, IMHO. This was using the last official V5 Win98 drivers, v1.04 IIRC. What OS / drivers are you using? Ian -- Ian Riches GPL Rank +1.76 Monsters of GPL +284.19

Thanks for the reply OS windows 98 se and voodoo 5 drivers are vs-w9x- 1.07.01 and bios version 1.15 Alex
Before swapping my videocard to a Radeon 8500LE a few weeks ago, my system had a Voodoo5 and F1 2002 was running fine on it. I run Win 98SE, and from what I recall, I was using the official 3Dfx 1.04 (or thereabouts) drivers. I believe the date was November 2000. Good Luck with it! Alexander Markink wrote:
