I understand Voodoo 2 cards typically had to be made by the same manufacturer and have the same memory configuration to work in SLI and there are now 3rd part drivers that add the functionality for cards from different manufacturers to work. My question specifically revolves around the Diamond and Creative CT6670s since many times they are marketed as the same card. Do these cards work in SLI together without hacked drivers? I recently obtained a Creative Labs CT6670 8mb card and upgraded it to 12mb however the only semi affordable cards I see now for sale are the Diamond Variant. The PCBs look identical and the only thing that can possibly be different is the BIOS which may prevent it. If I can help it I'd rather have cards that were meant to work together. I'm also trying to troubleshoot a WIndows 98 issue were 1 out of 5 times it won't fully boot into Windows. It will randomly hangs with an hour glass right before Windows Loads the custom wallpaper. All the components have been swapped except my Voodoo 2. I get I can just remove the card since it's not mandatory but I'm looking to get a second card anyway for my ultimate retro build.
