I'd read here earlier that if you install DirectX5 with a 3DFX card,
you should only install the core driver, not the sound or video
drivers. Apparently if you do install the lot, it overwrites your
Diamond drivers and stops you reinstalling them (or at least causes
problems trying to reinstall them).

Some have said they aren't going to install DX5 but stick with DX3.

Sorry I can't help with the finer details.
