Title: Voodoo 2 SLI mapmem error
Post by: noded on 06 June 2005, 16:37:40
I'm trying to run Enemy Territory (the only game that i have installed right now) with my "new" Voodoo 2 SLI, I installed the FastVoodoo 4.0 XP GE and try to run ET with Mesa FX but it gave me an error: mapmem returned an error trying to map memory.

I installed the patch for FastVoodoo but still it doesn't work.
What should i do ?

Sorry for my bad english.

I uninstalled the FastVoodoo and installed the ones from the link but when i try to play ET with Mesa FX (or WickedGL) it gaves me this error:

Initializing OpenGL subsystem
...initializing QGL
...calling LoadLibrary( 'C:\WINDOWS\system32\opengl32.dll' ): failed
...shutting down QGL
...assuming '3dfxvgl' is a standalone driver

...WARNING: missing Glide installation, assuming no 3Dfx available

check your system32 folder if there are files named glide2x.dll and glide3x.dll (you system must be configured to show hidden hidden files),delete the GL folder in wolf main folder and instal the latest wickedgl,then copy the opengl32.dll from the wickedgl folder to Wolf main folder.see if that helps..

Hi, i rebooted the PC and now it give me again the mapmem error, i'm with the drivers from the link... i put the opengl32.dll in the ET folder.

btw, i have a GF FX i know that there are some issues with this gfx but i don't really know if it is the problem here.

I really don't know what is wrong.

My motherboard is a Asus P4P800-E, i'm using win2k3, but as far as i know it is XP driver compatible.

How can i disable the secondary output of my primary card ?
(GeForce FX 5700)

see if you have the card listed twice in the device manager (primary and secondary output).radeons are listed this way,not sure about geforces,I never had one with dual output.win2k3 might cause that trouble,its maybe officially compatible with xp drivers,but its simply not the same..and this is a 3rdparty driver designed for win2000/xp,so compatibility is not guaranteed.

No the geforce doesn't have secondary output like the ATI Radeon.

well so maybe i will install Win98SE in a near future to try it.

Thanks for all the help :)
