I have tried various drivers for my voodoo 5 agp card, and none of them can run Open-GL at speeds anywhere close to my lil bro's voodoo3...(have used standard issue drivers; Omegadrive's updated drivers; and v5 beta drivers)

...am I supposed to believe that the voodoo5 cant outrun the voodoo3 in Open-GL, because there aren't any kick-*** drivers for it??

System:AMD 750 T-bird OC'd to 933/133fsb
Asus a7v133 Mobo
256MB RAM
WD400BB Hard Drive
voodoo5 5500 agp video card
Antec 300W psu

Any suggestions or links for better drivers would be greatly appreciated. <IMG SRC="smilies/smile.gif" border="0">

The best I did for my voodoo was to download the wickedgl mini drivers.... Wicked 3d (http://wicked3d.com)

this only works for certain games

I have the newest drivers for the voodoo5 5500 AGP, if you have a mailing address that can handle around 9 megs then let me know, or you can make a www.whalemail.com (http://www.whalemail.com) account and give me the username and pass and I can store them there. I can't remember where I got them, but they work fine for me. I ran UT at waaaaayyyyy over 100fps

FYI,

The latest VooDoo5 drivers can be found here:

Windows 95/98/ME - ftp://ftp2.3dfx.com/drivers/voodoo5/vs-w9x-1.04.00.exe

Windows 2000 - ftp://ftp2.3dfx.com/drivers/voodoo5/vs-w2k-1.04.00.exe

Both are certified WHQL and support DirectX 8.0.
