Will the voodoo2 (yes i still have one) be supported in winxp or will i have to use hacked nt4 drivers?

I read on voodooextreme that there will be no new drivers written by nvidia/3dfx for windows XP ..... but you will be able to use windows2000/NT4 drivers.

Voodoo 2...

Wow, doesnt that bring back memories.

When 3dfx was king, i had a P2, 350 mhx that would boot with a 4.5 multiplier on a Gigabyte GA686 BX Mobo giving 450 mhz, 128 meg ram with 2 Creative 8 Meg Voodoo 2 cards over clocked to 95 mhz running in SLI with a Intel i740 8meg agp card for 2d work ...

This thing would pull 110 fps in Quake 2 at 800*600 and Unreal was as smooth as silk....

This was king of the hill 3 years ago......Now it is a nice door stop.

Anyone else got some fond memories they would like to share of the once mighty Voodoo 2 ???
