Whoa!  You're right!  I just tried again, selecting the Voodoo card as primary display, and sure enough it became the primary display.  I think the problem was that the program I was running (Grand Prix Legends) was crashing so fast that I never saw that the V5 was working.  However, the last time I tried GPL the program ran long enough to at least bring up the 3dfx logo.  So it now looks like a driver problem.  What driver setup do you two use?
Thanks a million; I'm really excited I get to use my V5.  I thought it's day had finally come...

Hello.
I am an old Voodoo fan from the V2 days, and there are some old Glide games which I enjoy.  I upgraded to a V5 5500, then to a Radeon 9800 Pro.  I run Windows 2000.  Ideally, I wanted to keep both the V5 and the Radeon in the machine and switch cables between the two when I was playing Glide games.  Well, I wasn't able to do that (the V5 kept getting installed as an extended desktop and never seemed to be an option in 3D games).  So now I plan to add a Voodoo2 card to my Radeon.  I only want to use the Voodoo card for Glide games, and use my Radeon for everything else (D3D and OpenGL).  What is the best way to set this up (drivers, etc.)?  I don't want the Voodoo card to hijack games that would run better on the Radeon, and vice versa.

Thanks for your help!
