Hey... I have a 12mb Creative Labs 3D Blaster Voodoo2 and it works great on Quake, Forsaken, G-Police, and all others I've tried so far, EXCEPT Flight 2. Here's what happens... When I open it up, the screen switches to black, I hear it start to load (the hard drive crunches, etc..), I get an hourglass on a black screen (in a lower res than I was in), then I hear a "dink" (windows default error .wav), and then I have to hit ENTER or ESC before it will let me back into windows. It seems like a dialog comes up that I can't see. I wish I knew what it said, if anything. I've tried all the recommended troubleshoots in the manual. defrag, scandisk, reinstalled, get newest drivers.. Done it all, to no avail. Anyway, I can't play my new game and I'm annoyed. I'll call Looking Glass and Co. tomorrow (3/16) and ask them.. Has anyone had this problem? Any suggestions? Thanks in advance, Jud
