First off I must explain that this is a really piece o trash computer (550 Monster emachine).  The old video card fried and sporadically freezes up.  I got an old diamond Monster 3d 2 (12 meg) from my brother and was thinking I could use that instead.  2 problems occured.  It seems I can;t find a driver that works for wind 2000 and the video card that runs 3d games.  Second, the old vanta video card has all the bios and crap and I can not just replace it with the voodoo 2 card.  I placed the v2 card in the second slot and use the voodoo2 card as an attached moniter and then change the voodoo2 to the primary moniter and that keeps my computer from freezing. The driver that allows that is the v2-w2k-1.00.00-beta.  Problem with that is that it is only for the direct3d and no games work on it   Is there some magic way that I can fix this hairy deal? If anybody could help I'd appreciate it greatly.

you know,this is not completely true.if you use the win2000 d3d beta or whitetigers v2 xp driver,the voodoo2 is able to work COMPLETELY without 2d card.you wont be able to see how the pc posts,but once the windows GUI is started the card will be activated..just make sure the voodoo2 is enabled and set as primary..

Correction.... I was already using the d3d beta and thats the only stable one I can use but does not allow me to use the 3d aspects of the card for games.  I tried the whitetiger's modded one that says it supports d3d and glide and so on, and it all looked fine and dandy, loaded up fine, but after about 5 sec of the windows loading up with all the icons on the desktop, the screen stopped recieveing a signal and just turned off... so it was about 95% there but somewhere in the loading it turned bad   Any other ideas, or ways I can get the whitetiger driver to work?
