I can't get Screamer 2 work on my Win98SE system. Here is what I did:
- installed the game from CD
- Copied S2_3dfx.exe and glide2.ovl from this threadDOS Glide 2.4x Mod for Voodoo2 to the game directory
- created a .bat with the environment variables

But everytime I try to launch the game I get an error and either the DOS window closes or sometimes even the entire system freezes up.

Here's my system:
Pentium III 1000/133MHz
ASUS P3B-F (latest BIOS)
256 MB of RAM
Geforce 4Ti 4200
Voodoo 2 SLI (both Diamond Monster 3D II)
ESS 1868f Soundcard

Other things I tried:
- using different glide2.ovl versions from different driver packages
- set the CPU to 500 MHz
- disabling SLI
- starting the game in DOS mode, same errors

I know this is a Voodoo 1 game but many people reported the game to be working on their V2 systems. Am I missing something? I have similar issues getting Tomb Raider to run. But one at a time.
