This is just a warning for anyone thinking of upgrading a Voodoo card to a GeForce.Despite my best efforts to remove all trace of my voodoo card the Geforce kept locking up.After trawling over the net i found several people have had the same problem with voodoo cards leaving something behind.
In the end i had to follow most of the suggestions and format my hard drive and start again.
I am just NOW after 4 days beginning to think it was worth it

Blimey Steve...!
Thats a surprise...!
I've had the 3DFX Banshee, Voodoo 2 2000, and Voodoo 3 3000 cards installed at different times and upgraded to the Hercules/n-Vidia Ge-Force cards with no problems.
Windows '98 SE.
After un-installing the drivers, it has left a few odd files behind but they don't seemed to have affected the running of the 'puter...!
Cheers...
