hi,
i am a new member.
i have installed a matrox 4 Mo + VooDoo2 3Dfx 12 Mo on a 233 MMx + 256 Mo Ram :D
and i have some trouble with this installation.
then i would like to know :
Wich 3D software to know if my VooDoo2 work well.
and especially the hardware acceleration.
when i launch Dxdiag.exe he tell me :

Then what is your opinion, sorry for all those détails[8)]
Dxdiag won't run any of the tests with voodoo 2 or voodoo 1 if you have directx 9 installed, it will run the tests if you have directx 8 installed but there's no reason to do that, as games seem to run fine anyway. Go to www.futuremark.com and download the 3dmark99 if you want to make sure directx is working on your system, you could try 3dmark2000 but I'm not sure it will work on the voodoo 2.
