It finally decided to work. I have a new question, since I have been using this voodoo5 card the ability/ compatability with games depended on the driver. Raziels evoulution driver worked for most games and a game called tumblebugs but not with halo. Now with the SFFT driver and windows xp this game has graphic consequences, literally. You can download the demo of this game from zone.com and see how circles become squares. Is this a driver issue? It has an option to enable opengl or D3d. Would changing this to open gl and downloading mesa fx make a difference???
*sheesh, I should of just bought a geforce 2 card
