my 166MMX processot - it can't give the data to the video card fast

Oh, and just for reference, a p166mmx in my office, with one V2 card,
runs at 800x600 and does at least 30fps, and that's 30fps of pure

I do about 60fps on my p2-400 at home with dual V2's at 1024x768.
Could probably bump that up to 70-80 if I cared to fiddle with more of
the settings and bothered to turn CD audio off, but I think 60fps is
enough.
