This worked for me a while back with my voodoo 2 card (and I do mean a while
back), I remember using the Direct x 5 drivers when direct x 6 was out. Just
reinstall the drivers over top of the latest direct x. It might work for
you. Like I said it worked "back in the day". Your best bet is to "move on"
to a newer video card. I hate to say it, but the banshee was ***when it
was released.
