I suspect I am about to do a risky thing ....

I'm going to upgrade my poor old Voodoo2. Put the deposit down yesterday, on a GeForce2 MX Prophet. ( and then found this thread and read the posts about the problems with the MX ... ) I would like to get things right for my MX first time, and avoid as much "grobbling" as possible.

System: PII400, 128Meg, Windows98SE, SB64AWE Gold, DirectX7

Questions:
Will WW recognize the new card straight off, or am I going to have to re-install and start again? ( Up to now I have had no problems at all with either the installation or running the game. )

Have the issues with the MX been sorted out yet, or is it MX/brand of MX/MX drivers specific, and you either get lucky, or have to fiddle around with settings and drivers? KC_2, green dungeons sound rather yukky ..

Can anyone advise me what MX drivers are best suited for DirectX7? I do not want DirectX8 ( I have no experience with Geforce stuff at all, I don't even get my MX until next week )

If all else fails, will running the game in software mode with the MX run problem free? I don't mind software mode, its what I've playing with for the last 2 months anyway!!

P.S Got this message in the right thread now. Sorry, everyone.
