Forums -> Multiple monitors -> Win2k and Acceleration

I have the following:
Creative Geforce DDR AGP as primary
Voodoo 3 2000 PCI as secondary
Windows 2000 Pro

Whenever I have the Voodoo 3 enabled no (or very few at best) games will see the geforce as being 3D accelerated (eg. Flight Sim 2K), disable the voodoo and all problems go away.

I'm using 6.34 drivers on the Geforce, DirectX 8.

I'm not too fussed about getting hardware acceleration on the Voodoo (although it would be nice) but it would be very nice indeed if I could get Flight sim working such that I can dump all the instruments on the second monitor.

Any help most appreciated! (if you could email me as well that would be even better, since i'll probably forget to check this forum unless it mails on post :) ).

I have the same setup, albeit with a Voodoo3 3000 PCI. You could use a program called 3d control centre, get it from www.videologic.com

Im using the 6.49 drivers and ive not really noticed a problem, im using the 1.00 version of the Win2k voodoo 3 drivers.You could try using the WinNT4 drivers as they have no 3d acceleration at all. They are on the cd that came with the card.

hope this helps...
