I'm running two CL 12mb Voodoo2 cards in SLI-mode using the latest CL
drivers. Falcon4 in 1024x768 resolution produces a heavyly pixel-noised
picture (wrong colors, flickering pixels, etc...)
At 800x600 everything is ok, other applications (3dmark 99, battlezone,
etc) don't show this problem at 1024x768!
Voodoo2 is not overclocked, system is Ppro233, 128mb RAM, S3 968 graphic
card (yes, I tried the s3fixmem tool :(
I even tried to swap/change pci-slots....

Any help would be appriciated,
thanks,
Joerg

Hey, it may have NOTHING to do with it, but, I had a problem when running F4
in 1024x768 too (although I have the Diamond Monster Voodoo2). The pixels
flickered (light blue) and I also got extremely thin black lines flashing
across the screen.

Emails to Diamond & ATI produced nothing useful so I decided to delve
further. I noticed in Display Properties that the Refresh Rate was set to
85MHz and so lowered it to 75MHz. When I went back into the sim, all was
well.

Hope this helps.
