As seen in the ReadMe file :

=======================================================================
Installation
=======================================================================

1) Install the latest 3Dfx Voodoo2 reference drivers if they haven't
already been installed.

2) Copy or extract the 3DfxV2ps.dll file included with this distribution
into your Windows 95/98 system directory (normally C:\Windows\System),
replacing the existing version.

Step 2 should work fine alone, since you already got a good Driver installed.
After that, the Control Panel should show up in the Display Properties and offer the additional 3dfx Tabs with the advanced Options.
Alternatively, you should be able to access it from the Windows > Settings > System Controls via Start Menu as well.

In short, the Voodoo2 Control Planel is just a .cpl File
going in your Windows\System Folder, that's it. Its 3dfx Icon should appear among the other Control Applets after you copy it there (if not, refresh Window with F5 should reload all Applets)

Reply #4 - 05.07.05 at 23:17:16 Thanks for the help, it finally showed up after I properly read the Athalon V2 install instructions LOL then I was able to run it and make the necessary adjustments. I'm waiting for my 2nd V2 1000 so I can run 2 in SLI should be a nice set up for RB 3D thanks

Reply #5 - 05.07.05 at 23:58:50 Good luck with SLI - be sure that both cards are the same brand Voodoo 2 just to avoid problems! You can use different cards, but it would involve hacked drivers... If SLI works fine for you 1st time - GREAT, 'cos it kicks A$$! 8) ...if not, get back on the forum and we'll sort you out!
