To answer the OP, yes the PCI 5500 will work along side the AGP Ti4200. I
have an extra system set up with Win98SE using both for a couple of my
flight sims and a couple of racing sims that want to choke, barf, etc.
anytime they get close to WinXP and/or a GeForce card. I just have to
decide which card I want to use during boot-up and select it in the bios.

Which flight sim? If it's Red Baron 3D, check out

Hi,

All this talk about 3Dfx make me remember my Voodoo 5500 AGP video
card just recently gone to silicon heaven after many years of good
service. Any way, I got a used Asus V8420 GeForce4 Ti4200 to replace
it.

The GForce4 works great with most of my "newer" games that the V5500
was unable to run (lack of T&L hardware and power). But I do dearly
missed the V5500 because I am unable to play some of my favourite
older flight sim that utilized Glide.

Fortunately, I have a spare never used V5500 PCI version and I wonder
is it possible to have the V5500 PCI along with the Ti4200 AGP? Is it
pain-less to install and setup driver for both video card on the same
system? My PC is dual boot of Win98SE purely for games and Win2K for
non-gaming stuffs. My monitor has both BNC & D-Sub connector and can
easily switch via a button.

Please advise. Thanks.
