Exactly what the title says, if i run a game like shadow warrior or blood in 3dfx mode i get a black screen. i run the games from windows and not exit to dos mode, the 3dfx driver i have is the latest driver from 3dfx that isnt beta.

Ah, I always thought it was a voodoo 5 in a cheaper or smaller form. Speaking of a voodoo 5, how long does the pci version of the 5500 last for?

go for AMD !

Now i need a good motherboard with agp 1x or 2x that won't "fry" the voodoo card. (Amd athlon xp 3200+)

3dfx reference drivers, the last official release from 3dfx for Win98.

Here you go: 3dfx 1.07.00 WHQL

Don't forget to install DirectX 7.0 if you haven't done yet.

Alright ill try it later on, I got dx9 installed on both oses

Exactly what the title says. I am looking foward to upgrading my voodoo 3 machine with a intel i815 pentium 3 motherboard. I see people are using the voodoo 5 with a p4 and amd athlon xp 3200+. Well thanks for the replies.

By the way what's better, Pentium 4 or amd athlon xp 3200?

have you tried the Win98 Reference Drivers?

You mean the ones that come with 98? Then no. Dont you need glide2x to play 3dfx dos games?

What a pity for the driver's experimental level! This card seems to have a very great potential...Thanks.

Bye bye
