Don't copy this glide3x to %windir%\system, it's definitely not a good idea.
Why ? It's early beta and it's buggy like hell, for example try to run Tribes 2 with MesaFX and this DLL - lots of gfx bugs... Same UT2K3 - sky on DM-Antalus is broken, various errors with Glide64, texture bugs in Unreal. So, copy this dll to game directory instead, if all works fine - use it as this dll is faster than 30303, bugs - try to delete this glide3x.dll
and use older 30303 until bugs in 40404 will  be fixed

How about posting this on the sourceforge page, in the bugs section? That would be much more useful than putting it here. I think it's use is similar to MesaFX, use it only when it gives better performance ;)
