Maybe I'm just a retard but I can't get my Voodoo 5 to install on XP. I put the card in and restart and the screen displays the dell bios and the XP splash screen correctly but when it loads XP it comes up the a bunch of messed up color. From what I understand you are suppose to install the card first then intall the driver from the cd. When I try to install driver first XP won't allow setup to run because the driver requires w98 or wME. Is there some sort of trick to this? My computer is a Dell with integrated video, and I have tried disabling the integrated card first in device manager, then restarting, but I get the same problems.
