I have winxp and I've tryed to play hitman2 and hitman3 with voodoo2 using the Mesa FX .The game runs fine for a while,then suddenly it halts and I'am pushed back in the desktop.
In hitman3,worse:When the game halts my computer restarts without warning or nothing.Just simply restarts or  I recive this error

I've tryed all drivers (including this location: http://www.geocities.com/dborca/ )  and all combination ,and nothing works.
Now ,I know that Hitman2,hitman3 had been designed for d3d platform only,but the develloper had included an  openGl render.
In the hitman2.ini file :
I changed the line :DrawDll RenderD3D.dll with DdrawDll RenderOpenGl.dll,set the colour depth to 16,and the resolution to 640x480.
I have downloaded and  installed the opengl32.dll(mesa 6.3.0.1), in the hitman3 folder, created a batch file
in wich I wrote these 2 lines:
SET MESA_FX_MAXLOAD=10
hitman2.exe

Then I launched the game via this batch file and As you seen above its
limping.
So if have the same problem ,please report.
Current glide driver in-use:KoolSmoky's glide driver for winxp
Current mesafx glide library in-use:opengl32.dll mesafx(ver 6.3.0.1)


Here is some screenshots taken (until the game halts):

you are the guy from here,right?

anyway,you problem is not voodoo2 related,something is wrong with your system.you know how to reinstall windows xp,do you?  

anyway,try this first:
-install the latest drivers for your motherboard (what motherboard do you have,btw?)
-reinstall the latest directx  
-scan your system for viruses/spyware
