    Question Vodoo3 AGI/PCIP Probelms

    Ok i have a vodoo3 AGI/PCIP card and for some odd reason the picilage is not working right and neather is the full 3dfx glide... I have tryed to reinstall the drivers from the disk, but still didn't work. I downloaded the patch updates off the 3dfx official homepage but my card still refusses to work right. The sytoms of the card is I can't play diablo 2, i can't get the pickliage past 640x480, also when i play everquest or work on anything that need 3dfx glide the colors are distorted and very blurry. I would wonder if anybody know anything about this problem and please email me or get in contact with me some how....

    I would try re-installing or updating your opengl drivers which can be done by going to http://www.glsetup.com

    Question

    You aren't by any chance overclocking this video card or your processor, are you? That could cause this blurry rainbow problem. Have you tried updating your chipset drivers for your motherboard? That could help. You could also try re-installing the driver for your monitor, this may help you get your resolution above 640x480.

    Give us a little more information about your system like what motherboard/chipset, processor, how much memory/type, sound card, and if you know what kind of power supply you have like whether it's a 200w, 250w or 300w ps.

    If you can't find a specific driver for your monitor you can use one of the drivers from other companies. For my generic monitor I usually use a driver from Princeton or Philips. just make sure you don't get to drastic on the refresh rates. I usually stick with 75mhz.
