I have 2 comps 1: 500 mhz 128 ram with matrox g400 max 32mb, i use the same
drivers as you and have no probs, but got to admit using d3d i have to use
medium setting to get decent framerate. The other is a 350mhz 64 ram with
voodoo2 but with that i can use the high setting to get a similar speed, as
far as your prob it seems like a sound driver conflict. best of luck
regards tic
