Help, please - Rally Championship locking up - 3dfx problems?

Just reinstalled Rally Ch'ship (UK version) on my new PC - did a full install as I thought that would be best. Trouble is, on the main loading screen, the loading bar only gets about an inch across the screen before locking up the system completely - even CTRL- ALT-DEL won't work; you have to press the reset button. I have a vague memory of this problem coming up before, and that it was related to 3dfx cards (I have a Voodoo 3 2000 PCI, and no "onboard" alternative) but can't find it on Deja.

If you have ME on your pc you need to get the "special" 3DFX drivers.
