Firstly, Greetings! I'm back after a brief hiatus. Many moons ago I purchased an Xpert 2000 32MB AGP card and had nothing but problems with it and a couple of games at the time: MW3 and Deus Ex. My Rage3D username was Anim8r at the time. I swapped the card in favor of a Voodoo5 5500 AGP after the news that 3dfx was gonzo and the prices on these bad boys plummeted. Then a while ago I decided to run a dual boot set up of 98SE (had ME but it's junk) and 2000. Some apps of mine were behaving strangely with the Voodoo in either O/S so today I went out and got a brand spanking new Radeon 64MB DDR (after reading dozens of positive reviews) and am pleased as punch. So far so good. I'm going to test Deus Ex out (I've finished it but curiosity has got me) and see if the troubles have gone sine the Xpert days. The apps that weren't working properly under the Voodoo perform flawlessly with the Radeon. Anyway here's my spec's. This time I should be around for a long time.
