- samgribles, Spectrobozo: try with latest FV2 release for XP (3.5) and let me know...

Also, please use WickedGL (included in the FV2 package) to run OpenGL games.

Bye bye

Then go back to the last official 3dfx drivers...err, if there were any win2k drivers that is (not too familiar with Voodoo2 drivers).

probably you need to reinstall the drivers, uninstall the 3dfx tools from the add/remove programs section, then reboot and install the latest FastVoodoo drivers. Also, don't bother looking for drivers at voodoofiles.com, I'm a moderator on the board over there, and even we recognize that the drivers are way out of date. I did get the webmaster to put up Amigamerlin 3.0, but that took quite a bit of doing.

EDIT: Lecram, i'm no expert either, but I think the only original win2k drivers for the v2 were betas.

also, this should probably be under a voodoo 2 topic, but I have no control over such things.

I have a MSI K7N2 Delta-L and I have the same problem. Sometimes I get this little window saying nothing, and the most of the times I get the "Mapmem returned an error trying to map memory."
I've tried with 3.0 and 3.5 releases.
