Once again, coming from someone who DOESN"T even USE a Geforce
combined with V2's, so how would you know?

Can a Geforce play Whiplash in DOS, accelerated?   Can a Geforce play
Descent 2 accelerated?  Can a Geforce Control-F9 to desktop and allow
you to restore windows if Glide hangs?  Didn't think so.

>Why do you have a V2 and a GeForce DDR? You can't get the effects of both.
>If you want to use Glide, then get a Glide wrapper for your GeForce.
