I went through the same thing with the full install, the only way I can get it to run with the Banshee is to run it in D3D. If I use the large 3DFx install it craps out, If I use the large D3D install it works, but it doesn't look as good as it does in glide on my other machine. Still lots of fun though, IMHO. Zog

Although I cannot help you I can say that it runs fine with my PCI Banshee.

I've had no luck getting it to work with my Monster Fusion. I've downloaded all the patches, tried all the drivers. Tried Ubisoft Tech Support, no dice. I gave up on it. Jim
Yep, I've got it running, monster fusion! with the latest (1.09) patch and it might be that there's a banshee patch wait....nope there isn't. So that's all I did. Make sure though not to select triple buffering in your glide settings it will distort the screens. Btw, my sys is celery 300A/monster fusion AGP/64meg/creative soundcard Jarno --//--

I've got the same setup, and I can get it to run fine once or twice, but then I'll go back to run it a few days later and I get an error - can't remember the exact error, but something along the lines of my install (large 3dfx) is not compatible with my video setup. If I reinstall, using the same installation, it then works fine again... for a few days. Anyone having this problem? Thanks, Keith
