STB Nitro 3D Drivers, Where the Heck are they?

[glewis15]

I went to the STB page to get the drivers for this card and it says "They are embedded in Windows 98". Anyone know where I can find the downloadable version? I am having a problem where the drivers do not give me the ability to set my refresh rate, there is no field for refresh rate under the control panel. Is there a different program to set it? I cannot get the StbVision.exe to launch as well, any help is appreciated.

If the drivers are imbedded in the Win98 files, you may want to try Microsoft's Download site (for Win98) or point to your Win98 cab files to obtain the drivers. If you're not sure where your cab files are on your computer, you can go to the Win98 CD and browse it. Also try http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com/ or http://www.microsoft.com/technet/Win98/ to see if there's any help there.

(Since I'm also looking for this driver) I stayed on STB's 800 support number for one and a half hours -- NO KIDDING but I got some more info on this. There is no downloadable version of these drivers at STB's site; the tech suggested going to the web site for the maker of the card, S3 (www.S3.com). You may find them under the "Reference Drivers". Also, you may be looking for drivers called S3 Verge, Verge GX2 or GX2, instead of looking under Nitro. Good Luck if you try.
