What driver do you use?

[raid93]

Amigamerlin 2.9

[benna]

Maybe is a driver problem.
Uninstall amigamerlin through Driver Uninstaller, update directx and reinstall drivers.

[raid93]

nothing.

[skinnie]

what is the rest of the system?maybe that is the problem...don't know :S
updating the directx can cause marks loss I think...

you are probably hitting the cpu limit-voodoo2 can indeed be faster than voodoo3 on (very) old pcs.a pentium3 500 or better would improve your performance greatly-try getting one from ebay,they are dirt cheap.according to google,you should have a socket370 mainboard:

better check your mainboard for supported cpus before buying.

Will celeron 500 do the work?

[ps47]

certainly much better than p2 366.

[raid93]

I will try.

I overclocked my cpu to 458mhz and i get 3200 3dmarks. The problem is
solved[8D].
