Oops, ISP didn't like the size of that attachment but here is a link you can
get the drivers at:

http://www.racesimcentral.net/

The link is slow so have patience and the x3dfx driver location is listed at
the 3dSpotlight tweak guide I linked you to in my previous post.

Robin

Hi Robin..I will put the V5 back in tonight. however I cannot get the x3dfx
driver link to open. So I should load the 1.04.01 beta drivers first then
the x3dfx drivers?

Anything else I should do. I seen the x3dfx gl was replaced by the 3dfx one
is some cases?

Sincerely...

Dave C.

Dave,
Sorry about that link not working... I can't remember where I got those
drivers from originally. Probably from 3dfx's web site. My best advice, when
you do find them, is to install them and then install the x3dfx version over
them. Remeber to heed the advice of the 3dSpotlight tweak article for the
V5... they mention backing up the 3dfxvs.dll/3dfxvs.vxd file (depending on
which O.S. you are using) before you install the x3dfx driver and then once
the x3dfx driver has been installed replace their (3dfxvs.dll/3dfxvs.vxd)
file with the version you backed up. Apparently, the x3dfx D3D driver has
some problems. Other than that caveat the x3dfx driver has given me better
performance and I have been very happy with it.
Good Luck,
Robin

Dave,
I found a site that has the 1.04.01 beta driver that you are looking for. It
is at:
http://www.falconfly.de/3dfx.htm
...scroll to near the bottom of the page and you'll see it listed under the
V5 download section.
Regards,
Robin
