It's odd how popular voodoodoo is when I see so many posts with a back screen or lockup problem. Makes you wonder why it doesn't work any better.

I'm sorry to hear your having a black screen lockup problem when you see posts. Perhaps if you stopped salivating over Lynne Russell for just a few moments you would realize that compared to the other 3D accelerator cards, the Voodoo and Voodoo2 are very stable and supported. Sure your rendition has had a few spatterings here and there, but Voodoo/Voodoo2 has been the only game in town for wide support and blazing speed. -- *** Support open DVD *** No phone line connection No charge for additional viewings No records of what you watch Cheaper to rent Cheaper to own DIVX: Watching you watch movies DIVX: You watch it, it watches you DIVX: Its hard to beleive it, but Bill Gates has nothing to do with it!
Is this flame-bait? Have you ever used one? Just curious. As with much of the hardware and software available today, a small percentage of users will experience problems, usually due to the almost infinite combinations possible. Those are the ones that post, seeking assistance. You're not likely to get 50,000 happy VooDoo users posting to tell us all how well their cards work, are you now. But you know that. This is flame-bait, right? Zog > It's odd how popular voodoodoo is when I see so many posts with a back > screen or lockup problem. Makes you wonder why it doesn't work any > better.

It does work, the major problem is with outdated drivers and those who overclock the card. I'v never had any problems with mine. Andre >It's odd how popular voodoodoo is when I see so many posts with a back >screen or lockup problem. Makes you wonder why it doesn't work any >better.

Fotunately the v2200 runs perfect for me, but I'm a papy sim nut. I just feel bad for the people having problems with a chip that commands so much of the market. Unfortunately I have yet to see a good Lynne Russell pic so I gave that up. JM

Certainly does flawlessly I might add :) simple matter of drivers and I also owned a rendition and had to change drivers depending on what game I bought both cards have pros and cons but the software developers seem to be writing 3dfx code more than rendition by a landslide . So the choice is obvious . It does work, the major problem is with outdated drivers and those who overclock the card. I'v never had any problems with mine.
