Tecnically, it shouldn't matter which V2 you link the passthrough to, as they are in SLI. But (as with all electronics) sometimes it does matter. Try it out - it will work one of the ways anyhow!

OK today I battled against my SLI.
Result: 2-1(HW vs I)
> 1-0 I got the system totally crashed down, and totally it gave me this old damned report:" _GlideInitEnviroment: glide2x.dll expected voodoo^2, none detected " Angry

but it was only driver problem (got fastvoodoo and 3dfx drivers at the same time)

> 1-1 I got it working after format c:

> 2-1 because I get enough from fastvoodoo's drivers, I tried 3dfx Voodoo2 V3.02.02 drivers for sli, but it gave me error. could be repaired if i'll reorganize cables

I'll try tomorrow more.

btw. I tried install fastvoodoo but it didn't install its own settings to display settings in contol panel, why? should I install some extra apps.???

I would have helped more - but it's best to learn some of this stuff by yourself (then if if goes wrong, you can fix it easier - maybe...) Anyhow - now go kick some @$$ in U.T. <SLI> mode! 8) ==EDIT== BTW - what language is your Windows 9x? ???

Hmm.. must find that UT somewhere, which UT you mean. My friend might have it. Now I have been played quake 3(demo), and it's awesome Cheesy

...and the language of my windows is finnish, of course because I'm Finnish 8)

OF course. And it sucks in speed, but it's great to do a image quality test. You can try out the newest radeon/geforce cards and make a few screenshots with the best possible quality and then do the same with voodoo. I'll wager you're going to be speechless for a while. It's like a comercial for contact lenses 8)

Nah - MesaFx is mostly for Voodoo 3/4/5 cards. If you have a Voodoo 2 SLI setup and want better OpenGL then go to @Falcons 'drivers' section and download WickedGL. This will improve performance for games like: - Quake 1, 2, 3 Hexen 2 Half Life etc... 8)
