Hello everyone, I am having some problems with my PC (below) and Midtown Madness 2, It meets the system requirements. It's bearable with the city bus, but when I drive the faster cars it can't keep up, it gets jerky. I don't think it's using the Voodoo card, it's set on hardware 3d at 640X480 Med and Low settings. I don't get the 3DFX screen flash when starting the game.

Any ideals?

Try to disconnect the passthrough cable while playing. If the screen is blank then, it surely isn't using the voodoo card.

If its not using the Voodoo 2, I would think you would be able to switch to it with the "Display" option?

I doubled the ram from 64 to 128, and installed a 466 CPU vs a 366 CPU, It's working fine I can fly around at 100Mph, with only the slightest jerk.
