I can't even get it to work in Windows 98 with the original drivers provided by Creative Labs!!!
I can't understand why the **** it doesnt even workj with them.... 3 years ago it worked just fine...
Is it a problem with the rest of my system setup that makes all those drivers not work?

For the last 3 days I have been trying to work with my voodoo2 but with no luck...
I have tried a dozen unofficial drivers and none worked for me...
So finally I decided to make a multiboot system and have win98 just to use my voodoo2...but not even that worked...
After several formats and windows installations, I stil couldnt get the damn thing to work on win98....

I am really disappointed and ready to give up...
Let me tell you what the deal s for me :
I use the PC 90% of the time to play Diablo 2.
So I want to play it in Glide which is far better than D3D...

Thats my sole purpose, having good FPS in Glide in Diablo2 ....nothing else matters, I just want this...

Can you help me achieve it? I would do anything...even buy a new Voodoo card...

I dont get it, even when I installed win98 the official drivers werent working with Diablo2.... (i read somewhere they got a problem with Athlon...). Ok so I try unofficial fixed for athlon....not working either... then I try a bunch of other drivers....same ****...

In WinXP no more luck of course...

GRRRRR I WANNA PLAY D2 IN GLIDE!!! how was I able to play it 3 years ago in a P2 333MHz system and I cant play it now FFS???
What more should i do?

Will buying a Voodoo 5 5500 be a solution? does it have XP drivers or anything to help more than voodoo2?

Lastly let me tell you my system configuration and ask a couple of questions :
Abit NF7-S
Athlon XP2500+ @ 2200MHz
1Gb PC3200 RAM 2-2-2-5
Radeon 9700 pro
...

Ok, now a few questions :
Is there some online shop that stil sells Voodoo cards?
If I get a Voodoo5 5500 PCI can I use it in conjunction with the radeon and when I play Glide games, have it used?
What's the deal with Voodoo 5 6000? Can you get 1? does it work?


Please help me, I desperately need to get out of this D3D **** with Diablo 2...

To my surprise AGP aperture size was already set to 64.... so nohting to do
I'll go try the 3.0 now, but really there is no point if I cant play Diablo2....

Diablo2 is the only game i currently play on my PC....thats the main reason I wanted the voodoo2...
I wouldnt be hesitant to install win98 too on my PC and boot into them just to play D2....but the disk format currently is NTFS so I cant install them and I am too bored to make a brand new format...but as a last resort I would...
Is there some other drivers I could use to make D2 work on glide in WinXP?
I read this page here which seems pretty much what I want to do, but didnt work....

http://garnet.acns.fsu.edu/~dth2246/computers/3dfxwinxp.html

Well, is there some way to create a FAT 32 partition in my disk without formating so I can install win98?

Lastly, I was thinking, that although D2 will be superior quality with Glide, the 12Mb card wont handle 8 player games... so is there some chance I could use a Voodoo 5 5500 in PCI slot and use it just for D2? and can any of these be found at a low price?

I got the exact same problem....and pretty close to Flynn setup... I have already made a new post in the Voodoo2 forum, please if you can help, answer...

Hi, I am a happy owner of a Creative Labs 3D blaster Voodoo 2 12Mb.
I own it for about 5 years...
I am really dissapointed that 3Dfx closed ( but anyway, thats not the point of my first thread here...

Well, back then I had a Pentium 233 MMX....
Now I own the following system :
Abit NF7-S
AthlonXP 2500+  overclocked to 2200MHz (11x200)
1Gb Kingston HyperX 2-2-2-5 400MHz
Sapphire Radeon 9700 pro

Well, the 9700 pro is obviously far better than the Voodoo2 ....do you might be wondering why I am taking the time to deal with a 5 year old card...
The answer is simple.... I am a big Diablo2 fan, I 've been playing it for 3 years+ now... and I just thought I could take advantage of its glide version to have better results...both in quality and in speed...
I know its unbelievable, but this game drops to low FPS at crowded moments even on my Radeon 9700pro....and I think thats because its not optimised at all for it...

If I can use my Voodoo2 card I will both get the superior glide quality and possibly a same/better FPS behaviour...plus I will be using my favourite piece of hardware I ever bought....the Voodoo2...

So today I searched the net for some WinXP drivers... after several attempts with 3-4 different drivers I ended up with your FastVoodoo2_3.5_XP .Installation went ok. When windows load i get this error message :
"Error in 3dfxv2ps.dll   Missing entry:UpdateRegSettings"  from program RUNDLL. I get this everytime windows load of course...

I press OK anyway, and things seem fine, the card is recognised by the device manager, and the display tab 3dfx voodoo2 seems to work fine...
So I move on to try some glide games :
First I try Diablo2 which has a Video test that tests your hardware and lets you choose display device... While the tests finished correctly i get no option for Glide... just the 2D and  3D with my radeon...
I read your forums and I find a sticky about V2 and Diablo2 , that says maybe try using older glide3 ....so i replace the file with an older one and i run teh video test again. This time it stops at glide testing and returns an error :
"Mapmem returned an error trying to map memory" .
After this the system doesnt crash, but the screen becomes corrupted, and unsusable...I can go to my computer, to start etc, but cant see much so I restart...


Then I try to run NFS3 that also has glide support. I choose the voodoo2 from the 3d setup program it has, and I run it.....voiala....same error (mapmem...etc). Screen blurred again....


Can you help me fix this plz? I really want to use my V2 card and play some older glide games....mostly Diablo2 and NFS3...
