Q:

WHAT IS THE BEST GRAPHIC CARD, I HEAR ITS MONSTER 3D! I NEED TO KNOW ALL THE SPECIFICATIONS...WILL IT WORK WELL WITH MICROSOFT FLIGHT SIMULATOR 98? IS IT DIRECTX AND 3DFX COMPATIBLE...MOST IMPORTANTLY WILL IT WORK WITH FS98?

A:

I'm using Diamond monster 3D with a Matrox card 220, 4mb and it works quite good with the FS98. Just see that you get the latest drivers and install them in the right order. I did it like this.

1) Matrox
2) diamond monster
3) FS98 including directX

You should be aware, that the Monster 3D does not work in 'windows mode' only in full screen mode. That means, that some add-on programs like EFIS or GPS or DPGPS do not work with the Monster 3D ! The Diamond Viper V330 does work in Windows mode too as do other cards
