Status : Online | I know this sounds silly (since I work for SciTech) but I don't really know. Version 6.53 which was the last "official" release certainly does not support any GeForce cards.
There is also an unsupported version 6.7 which might support GF2 but I'm not sure.
What SDD primarily does is provide VESA support for DOS games. I only ever used it in real DOS but it is supposed to work in Win9x as well (no NT, W2K or XP - the DOS support in those is too limited). Because most vendors of DOS games tested their games with SDD (and many shipped SDD/UniVBE with their games), it tends to work well on supported hardware.
SDD is no longer supported but is available as a free download here:

GeForce 2 MX is suppurted according to Scitech and it works fine with my GeForce 2 Ti. It's really easy to use and works perfectly.
DON'T use the 6.53 version with yoiur GeForce card btw. I spent a whole afternoon messing with my system after trying it!
So, Michal, will version 7 ever be made availible for purchase? It's said to be working with XP too btw.

Status : Online | SDD 7 for Windows? No, I don't think that product will ever be finished, or at least not as a "home user" product. It is possible that there will be a version for enterprise customers who need to support new hardware on old versions of Windows but at the moment nothing's certain.
