The newer drivers remove that particular choice from the advanced properties, however, there is a replacement file available that restores that capability. You can get the file right from 3DFX... here's the URL: http://www.3dfx.com/docs/v2_ref_drivers95/v2_ref_drivers95.html The second link on the page is the one you want... it's the replacement control panel. Follow the readme to install it and the VSYNC option will be restored. Trips
