Spanky here...

I don't know how they do it either man.

BTW I don't know the solution to your problem but that will teach you for upgrading your drivers.

If they work fine why touch them?

Same pb here Hawker even with the original drivers delivered in the box.
Before i reinstall Windows it worked even if i had many troubles with fonts which desapeared in the interface and same while i chat in the lobbys!
When i reinstall windows and the new drivers taken from the 3 DFX site all was fucked up and i crash very often online more than i can stand.Excuse me for the sudden departures from lobby i did with you der boom and jet the last time...

Please someone help!!!!

Karaya 2, you need a Voodoo video card to run Glide. If you do have a Voodoo card you just select glide from SDOE Options/Display.

To run sdoe using glide.
use voodo 2. For best results use two of them
to increase you video mem.
Two 12 meg. cards work best.
Other video cards that support glide dont seem to work.

No no no... use Voodoo 3 3000 AGP! NO problems so far with the current drivers Im using (Which arent the most current released drivers but the ones right below them)

Glide worked on my vodoo 4500 agp right out of the box.al you had to do was run in 16bit and have mip mapping off.Now I cant get it to run in glide with the latest drivers and direct x 8.maybe its just an sdoe issue? dunno dont have anyother glide games lol.I bought the voodoo 4500 dor two reasons,! glide and 2 it is alot more reliable and compliant with most games.

Morale of the story: If it works, dont fix it.
