Also you can pick up the latest demo (19MB) which is Win98 compatible.
Don't know how they work as I've been enjoying the full game on my old V1.

It's actually VERY good looking. First of all, as it mentions in the
Readme... the User Interface is extremely hard to do anything. You
basically have to just select the green box in the bottom right hand and go
to where ever you had it previously set. (You can't see the box, but it's
sorta off the screen in the very bottom right)
The actual look of the game is ALOT better than it is on my Voodoo. Though
the FPS shown are around 23 or less... it seems to actually play better than
the 36fps I get with my voodoo.
I am hoping they don't let this one stay as a beta and work on it as well as
they can... it looks VERY promising. (ala... the Nascar2 3dfx patch.. that
is STILL in beta)

Worth a shot.

Not to mention: What? Those mean bastards don't support my super,

How to get rid of censorship in German game releases
<http://www.gamesmania.com/german/maniac/freedom/freedom.htm>
|\ _,,,---,,_ I want to die like my Grandfather,

'---''(_/--' `-'\_) screaming their heads off!
The "insult to injury" part is that these games are in the card's native
API. Why would it be that GLIDE games have more problems running on banshee
than D3D games? This does not bode well for rampage, which will be a total
rewrite of the 3dfx architecture. You have to realize that voodoo 1, 2 and
banshee are almost identical at the register level... there have to be a TON
of assumptions about the architecture in GLIDE code out there. I mean, hell,
if GLIDE apps are breaking on such small stuff as voodoo 1 to voodoo 2, and
voodoo 2 to banshee, imagine what a new architecture will do to those same
apps.
The sound of breaking GLIDE apps will probably be heard for miles around
when rampage is released. Luckily they will all run in D3D or OGL mode fine,
though.
