Another little bug that I noticed with the SFFT15 drivers is displayed in the window here below. See the bottom right of the picture the task bar windows do not go away. I clicked on them to display the window and 80 % of the time the window closes and the other 20% of the time the window stays displayed. Even if I open other windows the tasks bar windows stay there and always on top. To get rid of the widow, I must click a function in the window then the window disappears. Also when this happens I seem to loose focus on desktop and window keyboard button that opens the start in the bottom left of the desktop is inoperative.

Hello.I´m from Argentina. And I really need to strong my belive on 3dfx noce more. Just let me say that I admire all your knowledge about voodoo cards.

Well, I having problems to run "need for speed underground" under WinXP; over my Epox EP-3SPA3 carring a PIII 800ebMHz with 512Mb ram and (here comes the star) a voodoo 4500 agp with 32MB. I`ve tested from the originally drivers to the amigarlin lastest edition. And the problem remains always the same. THE PC GETS RESTARTED WHEN I TRY TO RUN THE GAME.
The only driver that seems to work is the one from "windowsupdate". And the game shows this:

Hi

After changing to single chip, the errors are gone. But the performance at 640x480 is bad. I have got AMD Duron 1600 on KT333 with 256MB. The framerate is only at 20-25fps. I'm using AMIGAMERLIN 3.1 R1 on Windows XP Servive Pack 2.
Can someone help me?

Thanks!

Adrian

Hi

I'm using the standard-settings. No V-Sync, no FSAA, no AF and normal quality.
But today I killed 380 virus, maybe thats the problem?:D I'll test it now:)

Adrian

@SFFT,

Half life 2 is working with the alpha 16 driver :D but only in windows mode, forcing the game to start in full screen causes rendering problems on half of the games screen.

I cant take any screenshots (fraps) as I'm getting a memory reference error and when acknowledged taken back to the desktop [:0]

ECS K7S5A Pro

Voodoo 5500 AGP
