Get the latest glide patch. Should found from
http://home.swbell.net/gmsmiley/Glide2x.zip
It worked for me, but only in 640*480 screen resolution.

Anyone have this combo and successfully run GPL? I get to the first set of
menu's and it crashes my system hard. I've tried all drivers available from
the 3dfx site but same thing with each.
Any ideas/suggestions much appreciated.
(and yes rreved I know it's not a gaming OS but others have had success)

GPL w/ V3 in w2k indeed need the glide-patch, but you have to set it up
correctly. To use 800x600 driving-resolution,
use these settings in the glide-patches ini-file:
GPL Override=1
; 512 x 384 = 3
; 640 x 480 = 7
; 800 x 600 = 8
; 960 x 720 = 9
; 1024 x 768 = 12
; 1280 x 1024 = 13
; 1600 x 1200 = 14
;
; The default is 1024 x 768
; This must match you GPL resolution setting
Resolution=8

Thanks fellas the gsmiley GL patch worked great.
Over that hurdle but another has cropped up. I use a Madcatz Andretti wheel
and GPL will not calibrate correctly. I can calibrate steering but not
throttle/brake. The numbers move but the little white up arrow remains
centered. In the game I can turn left only no throttle/brake. I've tried
both USB and Gameport. (The above using USB) the gameport just doesn't work
in Win2K (SBLive). Using USB this combo works fine in F12K and GP3 (and in
Win 2k/control panel/game controller applet). Any ideas or suggestions
appreciated.
