First of all, You use these drivers at your own risk! I'm not responsible for
you messing up your computer or anything else! You need to print these
directions and have read them threw before you start the install. I use these
drivers and I know they work for me hopefully if you install them right they
will work for you.
There are to ways to install these drivers. First go get the
http://www.legendband.com/outlaws/XPdrivers.zip from
http://theoutlawdad.com/Files.html
1. Unzip driver files to a folder on desktop.
Right click my computer, Click properties, Click hardware tab at top,
Click device manager tab, Click the + sign on display adaptors, Double Click
your 3dfx adaptor, Click driver tab, Click update driver, Choose install from
list or specific location (Advanced), Click Next, Choose don't search I will
pick the driver to install, Click next, Click have disk button on that screen,
You will get a install from disc message with a browse button, Click browse, Use
the small arrow at the top of the next window, Click it, Click desktop icon,
then click the new folder you made on the desktop, then click driver2k folder
inside that folder. You will see 3 inf files in that folder, 3dfxvs2k.inf for
V5and V4, Banshee.inf for V Banshee may work on V2 not tested on V2, Voodoo3.inf
for V3. Click the driver you need and click open, Then click ok on the install
card,
windows will say this driver is not digitally signed, Click Next, on the
hardware install card that comes up click Continue any way, From there any
message are from windows saying you are installing older files just click yes on
all them, The point is to get these files in and get those files over written.
Once they are in reboot. Windows should load these drivers right up, If your
screen comes up normal then they should work, If by chance you have a problem
you may not have done it right, Try again. I f your windows screen comes up at
the wrong size just go to display and set back to the right size, If you have a
messed up display screen, reboot hit f8 boot in safe mode and walk thou these
directions again, but this time pick the voodoo driver from windows shown on the
Have disk screen, Not the G.O.D. driver but the normal driver. then reboot.
2 .The easier way. Open the folder you made on the
desktop, open the driver 2k folder in there, Delete the 2inf files you do not
need Example if you have a v3 card delete banshee.inf and 3dfxvs2k.inf now you
have only the voodoo3 inf in there. Close that folder, go to the main folder,
Click the set up .exe (Not the one in the 2k folder) Windows will start to
install and you will get all the error message as you would get above, So do the
same as the above text says to do. after you install go to the main folder and
double click Module Merge Fix.reg. Windows will ask if you want to add this info
click yes. after install reboot. This also adds the tools in, but they are only
good for sizing the screen and it also makes the tools run at start up. I did
not like this way and think the #1 way is much better. It adds only the driver
you need and not tools that can't be used. To use all the tools options you
would have to delete all the fx drivers in your system before you install.
There's no way I would do that or tell you to do that, But it is the only way
the tools function will work. #1 way is better in my opinion. Everything
can then be set in the regedit.exe
