I have used 2x Voodoo Banshee cards (EvilQueen) using that same driver, both rock solid, never a crash (although my wife's card is dying now, putting fuzzies on the screen). I now have 2x GeForce2 MX machines, one a card and on a built-in (nForce), and I lock them up about every 30-40 hours. Sad. Even sadder that the fan on the card died almost immediately (less than 8 hrs up), but returning it to the wholesaler would have been more hassle than replacing the fan, which I did. Cheers; Leon
