I've been using a Creative Labs Annihilator 2 (nvidia Geforce2 DDR)
card with Win2k for several months now. I have had no problems with
Ansys compatibility. Everything runs great, shaded or wireframe. Of
course I don't have a pro-card to compare against.
I have however had some trouble with other OpenGL software I run -
CFX-5 cfd software. The hardware acceleration either isn't
recognized or causes software crashes. My guess is that it is a
driver issue and I am about to try some other than those provided by
creative labs to see if that fixes it.
