Hey guys.

I have a ACHI-156 motherboard with an AMD K6-2 that I'm trying to get my Voodoo 3000 working on. There's no sign of life whatsoever when this Voodoo is inserter but it works happily with the TNT2.
The Voodoo card 100% functions as it works perfectly in my P3 system. From what I've read, the Voodoo doesn't really use any AGP features so I don't really understand why this card doesn't work in this board.

Any help would be appreciated as I can't seem to figure this one out.

Hmm.. It should work easy with AGP 3,3V.
Try different Via AGP drivers.
try different settings in the bios for the agp bus. 3dFX cards can be very picky.

2| P200mmx, Voodoo 1
3| PIII-450, Voodoo 3 3000
