Hi I tried GP3 on P II 300 MHz and Hercules Stingray 128/3D. Can only use software mode, looking bad and slow. Is there a way to use Hardwaremode on this card ? SZ

The time is comming when the last of the Rendition vidcards will "HAVE" to be replaced. If you want to run the newer sims, you will have more and more trouble trying to shoehorn the modern graphics in the tiny ammount of memory that the Herc has. Good luck getting it going, if you do be sure to post back here how ya did it... And start saving for a 3dfx Rampage or GTS2+ultra or whatever they are calling it. dave henrie "Stefan Zscharnack" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:%p0y5.2549$[email hidden]...

The stingray 128/3D is a 3DFX card. It is in principle a 2D card with a V1 addon, the card actually has two printboards, and is really huge. It was no succes at all.
