GPL, Voodoo 3000 and 1.05 drivers?

I just installed the 1.05 drivers for my Voodoo 3000 and now GPL doesn't work Any ideas what I need to change to get it working again. Unfortunately, I only did this to solve another problem and now wound up with an even bigger problem. Thanks, Russell

They work fine here. Drivers newer than 1.04 cause a 20sec system pause polling the scsi cdrom the first time explorer is opened, but thats separate. rms [email hidden]

I went back to the 1.04 drivers and I am once again racing with GPL. With the 1.05 drivers, upon starting GPL I didn't see the 3dfx logo even though it was turned on. I did see the Sierra Sports screen, then the screen goes blank and then the computer is completely locked up. Some others posted about SCSI devices, but I don't have any SCSI equipment.

I use 1.05.B02 (1.05.00 prior) and have no SCSI CD problems. And yes I do have a SCSI CD-Rom (2940AU controller) :-). Mitch "Roger Squires" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:IPhq5.3009$[email hidden]...

I went *ahead* to the 1.05.02-beta drivers and now it's ok again (with V3 2000). > With the 1.05 drivers, upon starting GPL I didn't see the 3dfx logo even > though it was turned on.

When I used the 1.05 drivers I got the 3Dfx logo, the Sierra Sports screen and then it froze (hard reset required). > Some others posted about SCSI devices, but I don't have any SCSIequipment. I do, but I didn't have any weird problems there. > Russell Cheers, Herko

And the solution for this was to copy the ras3dfx.dll from the 1.2 patch to your GPL map after you had installed the 1.05 patch. Found this out after hours of frustrated trying :) Andre

Hi Russel, Click on 3dfx Advanced Features, click on OpenGL/Glide, click on Triple Buffering and disable it. This solved for me the flickering problem in GPL. Have fun Wingo Wango "Russell Keating" <[email hidden]> schrieb im Newsbeitrag news:8obvtv$1254$[email hidden]...
