Problem with 3dfx GPL

3 posts by 2 people · 01 Oct 1998 - 03 Oct 1998

I have both a 3dfx card (Diamond Monster) and a Rendition video card (Integraph Reactor) and though the game will run in the Rendition mode it will not run with the 3dfx mode. The demo for GPL worked fine with both cards and I cannot figure out why I can't switch to 3dfx with the release version. I have the required version of Glide so that can't be the problem. My system is a PII 266 Celeron overclocked to 400 with 64mb if that makes any difference. Thanks, Patrick Gilmore
Yes I did, plus even if I had selected Rendition I would think that I could change it to 3dfx in the appropriate options menu. That is how the demo worked anyway. Patrick Gilmore

try slowing down your 3dfx clock rate and or bus speed. I seem to get lockups with my normal voodoo2 95mhz, but less with 90. you have upgraded drivers, right?
