I solved it, it was the vsync.

I did NOT have this option, but I found a couple of things which could do it
for me, one of them is a HUGE utility, which every 3dfx card UNDER a voodoo3
could make use of, it's about 5mb and i posted it at my site with the
writers permission.

I also got a much simpler one, which JUST did what I at first wanted, that
is also posted.

note, other news has been added since it, so it's the (2nd?) news item down
now, and also the site is a little messy, i'm still building it

Link does't work Tim... there's just 4 links to other sites there.

Ah, I thought about that one. I first d/loaded the 2.54 drivers from
Creative Labs, that's probably why I had the DLL.

Sorry to sound stupid Tim, but WHAT LOGO??

Here's what I see: across the top there's the Xoom stuff and the body
consists of a completely black page with 4 links on a line in the middle...
each of which pops up some text in the top left corner when they get focus.
Neither of those when clicked reveal any content relating to this issue.
Using IE4 sp1. The redirect at the old address doesn't work for me either,
the page reloads itself instead of the xoom one.

there should be a picture of a Honda on the right.

the words 'Tim Wheatley's HONDA HOMEPAGE Click to enter...' are the logo.

I'm using IE5 but other people have said they liked and and got through with
Netscape and IE4.

http://members.xoom.com/TimWheatley/homepage.htm The reason why I have a
welcome page is because it allows me to get rid of the xoom banner.

But don't then you get messages in games saying that you're still having DX5
drivers installed?
I have the latest ref drivers and that control panel with the V-synch
option...
