I'm at my wits end. Maybe someone can help me.

I installed a Stealth 3D 200 Pro in my Cyrix P166.
Since then N2 doesn't work.
Called Papy, they said use Nas3dfx.exe to get 3D.
Ran Nas3dfx.exe.        Recieved "Fatal Err: Unable to load .DLL"
Called Papy, they said to load file "Glide02.dll" from video install CD to
N2 directory
File wasn't on Install disk
Called Papy again. Said load "Glide2X.DLL from Install.
Looked for file while talking to them, not there, they said contact Diamond
to
    "complain"
Called Diamond, said download latest driver from web
Downloaded dric\ver and installed. No "Glide" files yet.
Called Diamond back, said "Glide" not for Stealth 3D 200 Pro, Need to
download
       S3VBE318 from S3.Com
Downloaded S3VBE318, which created S3VBE20.EXE
Ran S3VBE20 /Install  in MS-Dos mode
Tried to run Nas3dfx.exe in Dos mode
Encountered original Fatal Err msg.

Does anuone have an idea to get this "junk" to work for me. It almost seems
Papy and Diamond want to blame someone else. I just want to race again.
Please let me know how to fix this problem

Did you bother to tell anyone that you did not have a 3DFX card?
NAS3Dfx will not work on a Stealth 3D 2000Pro due to the fact that it
is not a 3Dfx card. The only cards that you can run 3Dfx games on are
cards based on Voodoo Graphics, Voodoo 2, or Voodoo Rush chipsets. The
Stealth 3D 2000 pro is based on the Virge chipset. It is not a real 3D
card. Run the game from N2.BAT or NASCAR2.EXE.

i hope you didn't spend more than $4.95 for that video card.   If you
bought that because someone told you too, they probably meant to get a
Stealth 2 not stealth 3d 200.  see if you can take it back and get the
right one
