you need a SLI cable.if you dont have it,you can make one from a floppy cable.everything about Voodoo2 SLI,plus detailed instructions of how to make a SLI cable..

i installed koolsmoky's driver, bat i can't run any game....
i got black screen and sometime error without message.....

to enable mismatched support,you need to add a value to your registry.find your voodoo2 setting in your registry (should be here),create a new string named SSTV2_MISMATCHED_SLI with value of 1..

IMPORTANT NOTE: make sure both of your voodoo2 cards work fine in your pc if you run them in single mode (only one card in the pc)!

I should have the detailed pictures on one of my harddrives.too bad there is so many of them..I'll check tomorrow.

btw,the process of making a working sli cable is more difficult than it looks,I needed 3 attempts to make one that actually worked..
