You must run the 2.53 drivers for a v2 in the GPL directory. You can use more current drivers for everything else. JM
Sorry to moan at everyone, but I keep seeing this piece of advise being given out hear all the time. Well yes it douse work but its out of date info. anyone using a voodoo 2 with the 2.54 drivers just needs to update to the 2.56 drivers, they work perfect with GPL and AFAIK with every other game as well. You can D/L them at www.3dfx.com -- Mark London UK Yamaha TRX850 > Put the "Glide2x.Dll v2.53" in your GPL directory > http://www.the-fastlane.com/patches.shtml > P.Ivar > > Hi, have just changed my voodoo1 with a voodoo2 and after changed the > > drivers and installed the file glide2x.dll in gpl path the muose freeze > and > > i have to reboot the pc. with voodoo1 all this didn't happen, i am > > desperately because i changed my voodoo card to play gpl more fast and > > so..........................what can i do?

I have found that for my system, the 2.53 drivers are a lot more stable for GPL than the 2.56 drivers are.. Granted, they both work in GPL, but i get regular lock-ups with the 2.56 drivers, but never a lock-up at all, with the 2.53 drivers. So i guess any advice about which drivers are better for your system, can be boiled down to try it and see... I for one, will be sticking to the 2.53 drivers in GPL. Cheers, Ron
