gpl problem

i have the gpl demo from the nascar99 cd and i it runs fine on my girlfriends computer she has p2 333 with a 4 meg d3d vid card, i have a p2 233 with a diamond monster fusion 16 meg pci, i load the gpl demo from the cd then go to run it and it freezes at the sierra screen! any help?

Let's not get into religious wars over the manufacturer of our Voodoo2 cards. Diamond Monster2 works fine with GPL. Don't know about Diamond Monster Fusion. If you have installed DirectX 6.0, you need to copy an older version (2.53) of the 3dfx glide2x.dll. The latest glide2x.dll (2.54) seems to be the problem. > Diamond Monster and GPL hate each other.....Orchid Righteous and GPL > are happily married.

Fair enough...its just that I keep hearing of problems with GPL and D Monster Vll, and I know I had the same problems as these guys are having. I stand corrected. The decree Nisi is forthcoming. |o) -- #33 Zandvoort 1.28.56

OK...I agree...I won't shoot my keyboard off again about DMVll....Now would you mind explaining the term "dodgey board" to our international audience. |o) -- #33 Zandvoort 1.28.56 >What???
