mmm knew I was missing something, thanks Glide.

I'll probably have to tapper it back a bit.

Saw this Motherboard Supports XP.

How about PCI-e sound cards for Windows XP? Any recommendations? If at all. Anyone tried USB ones?

I'll look further into drivers as well.

This looks interesting. With ISA slot too.

Hi all!

I haven't used my 3dfx gear in a while and was wondering if their would be any concerns running pci 3dfx cards on modern motherboards. I don't wont to fry anything.

EG: Looking at building a Asrock Z97 Anniversary with a G3258 CPU.



It's got two PCI slots - ideal for my voodoo2 boards.

I guess it all comes down to the voltage and Mhz on the PCI slots, any other considerations???

Any clarification much appreciated!

QuoteI was a 3DFX collector but I'm not one anymore.

I guess that would explain the non observance of the forum rules! [:o)]

How quiet does it need to be, are you looking for an active or pasive cooling solution [?]

Trading Zone / Voodoo 6000 Ebay scam???

Sorry to hear that Patrick!

I must say for a moment I was real excited I was going to get a piece of 3Dfx history and that's what the "Harvey Crumpet" was playing on. Damn it. [:(!]

Have you tried running any dos Glide with only one GPU in operation?

I'd imagine you would have to fire up these dos glide games with some bat file setting up the environment.

Quotethe other option might be just to put my Orchid Voodoo1 in the machine but then that'd kindof force me into a VGA setup

You can install your voodoo 1 or 2 card having a dedicated screen for it that way you could keep your VoodooMAC DVI output. Essentially you'd be running two screens.

I've got a Dell UltraSharp Widescreen LCD with both DVI and D-Sub 15 input, so all I would do is connect both up and when running a voodoo1 or 2 card, I would switch to VGA on the front of my monitor.

This is probably the realistic solution, you could spend hours configuring a bat file to work properly if even it could, which I doubt. And it be for each dos game too. brrrrrrr! [V]

Thanks Rolo01 that be great if you could send it!

Is it the Voodoo 5500 Bios that states Voodoo 4500 by any chance?

#8
Does anyone know if there is a bios that exorcises a Voodoo4 4500 PCI MAC for use on a PC to enable DVI?

Or any information as to what to edit in the BIOS file to enable DVI?

It's been done with the Voodoo5 5500 and should be possible here too.

Anyone flashed a V4 mac with the PC bios 1.15 PCI?

Cheers!

Voodoo4/5 Discussions / V55K AGP FSB? 89Mhz?

Anyone know what the best tool to find your actual AGP bus speed?

I think I already had it running in 2D accidentally and it was OK. Wasn't game enough to go 3D until I asked here on the forum.

I'm thinking of overclocking the BIOS to match the AGP bus speed just for compatability. And go for extra cooling while I'm at it.

Eventually I want a system that I can do benchmarks between the PCI and AGP and just see the differences.

OK! I just got a voodoo5 5500 AGP version.

I wanna chuck it into my overclocked ASUS P2B-D mobo.
Anyone know if the V5 can take 89Mhz on the AGP port?
This is 33% higher than the 66Mhz when running stock 100Mhz FSB!

Any help much apprieciated!

Voodoo4/5 Discussions / Voodoo4 ?

Well I guess it's based on the Voodoo5 family. It was supposed to be a economical alternative to the V5 5500. But I think I read somewhere it was a bit of an economical failure like the banshee. OEM competition stuff and all.

Hey... has it got the AGP 2X 4X or is it PCI?

General Discussions / y bother?

Quotehonnestly y bother with old hardware thats long dead n never works with any of the latest games?
y bother? ....mmmmmmm? Cause maybe I don't want to run any of the latest games on my voodoo. EF2000 runs just fine with two Voodoo2's in SLI. And as far as I know no wrapper can wrap that, even if it could, it wouldn't be the same.

sorry 2 b blunt poooooo, but what you've said was complete horse$hit. :D

I really love this freedom of speech thing! ;)
