There is no Voodoo3 1000. He has a Voodoo2 1000. As the other guy said
you may have to try various driver versions to get it working
correctly. I used to run GPL on a V2 and it was fine from what I can
remember.

This is incorrect. There is infact a V3 1000, it is similar to the V3 2000,
but only available in AGP. In addition, it comes with only 8Mb of memory
(though of the SGRAM type, unlike the 2000/3000). The card is meant as an
OEM-only product, not available retail-boxed. It can use the 2000/3000
drivers without a problem.

Why would they give the 1000 designation to two different vid cards?
You may be correct, but I would like to see some evidence of this and
it doesn't say much for the logic of 3DFX if there is such a card.
Fueled by the award-winning Voodoo2 chipset from 3dfx, the V2 1000 PCI
turns your PC into a raging 3D game machine. The V2 1000 PCI works
with your computer's existing 2D graphics card to pump out over 3
million triangles per second to deliver today's hottest games at
insanely fast frame rates. Dual texture units on the V2

v3 1000 is available retail, and its basically a repackaged v2 i believe
so its PCI only...

Just as I thought. I guess an apology is in order from that other git
though. :-)

From the horses mouth! If it's a V2 then it's not a V3, is it? Duh!

Hey, just 'cos you've never seen something doesn't mean it doesn't exist !!
As an employee of an independent PC retailer, I can confirm that I've built
about 10 systems with the 8Mb Voodoo 3 1000 (and I don't mean a Voodoo 2
1000 either). It's a pretty good card for the price, and is also available
retail boxed as the STB Velocity 100 (which is identical). A quick search on
the net produced a few links.
And I don't understand why having handled a V3 1000 should make me a "git".
This card does exist, and is fitted in some Presario's,
eg http://www.compaq.com.my/home/presario5800.asp
and http://www.sharkyextreme.com/archives/september99_14.shtml
and http://computerstore.fsu.edu/pc/compaq/Presario/5868/5868.htm

or check out the Microsoft Windows 98 hardware compatibility list, the video
cards section.

If you go to www.3dfx.com and then click on products/V2 1000/ it shows
a photo of the box. Have a look and you will see it says V2 1000 PCI
right on the box.

You're a git because as I pointed out he was talking about a V2 and
not a V3. Yea, Dell used those OEM V3 1000's too for a while. Already
knew about them.
