I have an AMD 1.2ghz with 40gig and a 60gig hd\'s with 256 meg of ram and a voodoo5 5500 and SoundBlaster 5.1 xgamer. I would like to install WIN XP, i am curently running WIN ME, I tried running XP a few days ago but my voodoo5 didnt seem to work correctley, the system seemed to run fine and the graphics were awsome in XP but when i tried to run a game XP wouldnt let it see the card
not all of it anyway i checked the adaptor and it said there were only 32 meg of ram on the card when there is 64 ........ anyway what i need to know is how or were can i get drivers to run XP with my voodoo5 5500 and if there are any registry editing i could do to fix it??
There are a number of 3rd party Voodoo drivers at www.voodoofiles.com, i have been here as well but there are so many of them i just need to know which would work best.
I have since reformated my hd and reinstalled ME.
I love the stability of XP please help.
please forgive the messy post.

Few have identical systems als mine or yours , so the only thing I can advice is to try out the 3ird party drivers , and keep the one that doesn\'t conflict with other software . I have seen the Amigamerlin 2.1 on page one has 115.000 downloads , seems a lot to me .
