I have a very similar setup and the same problem. After help from this NG I
fixed the problem. I went to the 3dfx sight and downloaded the rkv2.exe
file. http://www.3dfx.com/software/RkV2.exe
This has older glide files that Direct X6 replaces. Just unzip the file to a
temp folder (dont install it) and then take these files and place them in
your GPL directory. (ex: C:\Program Files\Sierra\GPL\ )
glide2x.dll
glide3x.dll
glide2x.ovl
Then it should work with the old glide drivers in GPL and all other games
will use the newer drivers from the Windows directory. Also set your M3d 2
performance slider to 90Mhz, select Apply, OK and then restart W95/98. I
found that if you dont restart the computer, then it wont stay at 90mhz when
you run GPL.
Hope this works for you.
