Having problems with the graphics , been in touch with csm and they
suggested a vesa patch for my 3dfx voodoo graphics card . Has anyone found
such a patch or indeed got the sim to work with xp.
Cheers

SciTech UNIVBE (Universal Vesa BIOS Extensions). They used to make a product
called SciTech Display Doctor which was a universal graphics driver for
windows supporting hundreds of cards..

UNIVBE is for DOS.. probably exactly what you need. Both products are
'legacy products' - SciTech no longer do that stuff anymore, but they're
available for download on the 'Unsupported Software' page of
http://www.scitechsoft.com

Being XP, you'll also probably need the usermode port-access driver/patch
which allows software to access the ports directly for the TX interface. I
think info / download for that is available from the CSM website. Rainbow
Technologies Sentinel (piracy dongle) driver gives this functionality also..
so we're told.
