yeah, uh huh....anyways, how well does it run? What are your system specs? And how does it run if you turn on AA? Finally, does the rear view mirror work? I could never get this to work on nfs hp2.

Ok, here are my system specs :

Pentium3-S-1400
Asus Tusl2-C
512 MB SD-Ram PC150
Voodoo5-5000 @ 166 Mhz
SB Audigy

NFS:Underground is playable at minimum details, set it higher and the game will crash.
It runs a bit slow, you dont get the feeling of velocity, if you know what I mean :D
I tried it with 2xFSAA, no slowdown compared to no FSAA ( dont know why ).
Never tried the rear view mirror, how can I test that ?

Well it might be possible that your PC-150 SD-Ram is a bottleneck to the FSAA performance of your Voodoo5 5000 card, as therefore it doesn't have enough room to breath out its work, a Voodoo5 really starts to get it's performance when u use a 1800+,1800Mhz model CPU and up combined with DDR266/333 Ram.:)

What also is possible is it could be that it would run better on a Voodoo5 5500 AGP 64MB instead of a Voodoo5 5000 AGP 32MB , because the 5000 lacks an extra 16MB per VSA-100, or would the performance be the same[?]

As for the Voodoo5 6000 users around here I supose that you would ge an extra boost because of the 2 extra VSA-100's and 2x 32MB and that may be logic.;)

But the performance of a 5000 compared to a 5500 is that really noticable?

Anyone know the minimun requirements for this game??... because I tried to install it, but my pc crash and after that is impossible ran the game, because the exe file is missing....

anyway... NFS:HSP2 works good on my system, here is a pic... 800x600 no FSAA (for a little problem that I have with my v5 and D3D)...

I ran NFS:HP2 under XP, using amigamerlin 2.5SE. I'm waiting for underground to arrive now so I can give it a shot, I've already got 2k installed on a seperate hard drive waiting (got bored the other day, lol)

Sorry to say it, but if you want to run NFS Underground on a voodoo you have to use Win9x !
