I got off the phone this weekend with a Diamond Engineer and with a Creative
Labs engineer.  Both the Fusion and Voodo 2 in one cards give protection
errors on 5x86 CYRIX and 6x86 CYRIX machines.  Only the later CYRIX chips
are supposed to work with the cards.  I'm assuming that theres some sort of
conflict between common third party chipsets.   Both cards were advertized
as having VOODO II and 3Dfx onboard.
