You play "only" in OpenGl ? and what games ?
Do you success to install a driver under Win2003Server ?

In theory and if you play only in opengl, try to put an opengl32.dll (like MesaFx, 3dfx opengl icd, WickedGl ...) directly in the game folder.

i test many driver, and anyone run.

all games that i will play, appear message error about "3d video"..

if i don´t found driver for win2003, i´ll never use my placa 3dfx voodoo3 again.

You can't come back to Win2k (not 2003 server) ? Would be really easier specially if you want to play...
I don't think that Win2003Server has been thought for the game...

Windows server 2003 isn't meant to be a gaming platform, hence the word "server" in it's name. If you've got the dough to toss around to get Win2k3 server, then you must have the cash to get a new graphics card, but honestly...why a server platform for games? Get something like Xp or 2k SP4, those are a LOT closer to what you should be using.

As already said, try to put an opengl32.dll (like MesaFx, 3dfx opengl icd, WickedGl ...) directly in the game folder.
About MesaFx, you will find it
https://www.3dfxzone.it/dir/3dfx/mesafx/download/index.htm
or
http://www.falconfly.de/mesafx.htm

For a 3dfx opengl icd
http://www.falconfly.de/opengl.htm
and use 3dfx OpenGL ICD V1.0.0.0761

For WickedGl

ps : Why do you use Win2003 Server [?]

I would suggest that you try a driver that works under Windows XP. Such as AmigerSport 3. So far as I am aware Win2003 server is based on the NT code base, the last 3dfx supplied drivers don't work on later than w2k, and indeed don't work on W2k advanced server. So I would suggest Amigersport 3 which works on XP.

With Win2003 Server, you need to enable the graphics acceleration, DirectX and this OS would need WHQL drivers.
The only voodoo 3 driver for Win2k Whql is the last 3dfx V1.03.00.
So what drivers did you find working with a V3 and Win2003 Server ?
