voodoo problems

[Flanagun]

I've got this old computer im messing around with, a pentium 100 32 megs ram, running win95 and i cant get it to detect the voodoo2s i put in it i've run add hardware and i have no idea whats wrong.

I assume you've already checked that the are put in correctly, so I'm not going to go there:) Anyway, which regular graphics card are you using? You might want to put in one V2 card first and see if that works.

maybe try windoze 98?

[freddiedaman]

yep, win98 sure is a lot better.....win95 is so old that I've forgotten what the design look like and which functions are different :)

im using a tseng graphics card and i really doubt it'll run 98 with only a 100 mhz cpu and 32 ram

It'll run Win 98, don't worry. I've loaded 98 on lesser systems...
I'd give it a try, and see how it goes. 98 has way more compatibility with components than 95 does.

you do know that the voodoo 2 is only a 3d card, you need a 2d card also....just a thought
