People are running Doom3 on Voodoo 2 hardware, just because it isn't supported by id software doesn't mean it isn't happening.

damned i don't bring it to run it's discussing

first i've tried winxp...SLI cannot be detected great driver problems...
after that i'm setting my system up with win98se....effect: by opening doom3 it shows "Unable to initialize OpenGL" -> I've switched from MesaFX to WickedGL -> now doom3 starts, the 3dfx splash screen comes up and i see the menu initialization, then the console opens and i can see 4 warnings..after that the systems hangs Sad

this time i have really no idea what i can do to bring it to run..... damn
