I have a voodoo 3000 card,
the requirements for GP4 state a directX 8.1 supporting card
I think the card does not support 8.1...so...
if I get GP4 will I get it to work, but missing a few features
or will it just not run at all.
thanks for any info anyone might be able to provide

Interesting reaction
but what does it mean?

There are drivers available that support dx8.1 BUT, the real problem with
V3's is the small onboard memory. I don't know what GP4 needs, but many
titles today, like F1 2001 & 2 need at least 32 megs of video memory. 64 is
even better. So I would 'guess' since it's Geoff Crammond, it will run on a
16meg board, but how well it will run...???
Make sure IF you buy it, that you get it from a store with good return
policies.
Hopefully somebody else will chip in with direct experience.
