Specs:
Windows 98 & Windows 2000 dual boot
Windows 98 drivers: amerline 2.9
Windows 2000 drivers: SFFT 1.9
INTEL Pentium 3 833mhz
562 mbs of ram
3dfx voodoo 3 3000

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

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.
