3dfx drivers
17.10.04 at 22:12:46
Hello, I just recently upgraded my OS to Windows XP from Windows 98 SE. Thankfully my computer is running much better now, except I keep getting a 3dfx error message and a message stating I need to send in the error results to Microsoft (which I do), then I get redirected to website referring me to 3dfx Voodoo 3 site. Now I do not know what type of Voodoo3 card i have so I am not sure which patch to download to fix my error. I do know that my voodoo graphics card is an original card bought through Gateway Computers.
Can anyone help me out as to which specific patch I should get to fix my problems?
Thanks in advance.
Adam

Please post EXACTLY what the error message says...
Once we all know we can probably solve your problem in no time!
(it's probably just drivers, but we'll come back to that...)

Since XP has no native support for Voodoo 3 that I'm aware of I think drivers would be a very good call.

Thanks for the input all. I will try and get the error message written down next time it pops up. I do beleive it IS a driver issue. I just need to know which drive patch/upgrade/fix I need to Download to solve the problem.
Again, thank you all;

Did you ever resolve your problem with your 3Dfx driver? I am having the exact problem since I upgraded to XP. I also have a Gateway computer. Thank you!

no I haven't gotten the problem fixed. I did find a beta fix for the program, but I still seem to have the same problem though less frequently now. The beta fix was a link from the Nvidia site.
Good luck. I never did get the error message tracked down specifically, it only just said an error has occured with 3DFX and it is reporting the problem to microsoft. Then a window popped up from microsoft taking me to the Nvidia site for the beta patch. Good Luck!
