Guys,

I have been a quest on this forum for a long time, but now i finally became a member. The reason? I need you're help...

Whats the problem?

I have two Diamond Monster 3DII 12 MB videocards in my second PC just for the Voodoo experiance, the problem seem to be in the drivers...

System specs:
Motherboard: Asus A7V8X-MX (Socket A).
CPU: Athlon XP 2500+.
GPU: Onboard VIA Chrome (S3) & Geforce 6800 Ultra in the AGP slot.
Memory: 2x 512 MB Kingston ValueRam PC3200
GPU 2&3: Diamond Monster 3DII 12 MB PCI (matched pair).
Sound: Creative Audigy.
OS: Win98SE & WinXP (dualboot).

The first problem that I had is already solved, because detonator drivers from nVidia mixup with the drivers from 3Dfx (& FastVoodoo 4.6), so I removed my Geforce 6800 Ultra and now I use my onboard VIA Chrome chip.

After installing al the drivers from my main bord (LAN, GPU en soundcard), I installed the latest reference drivers from 3Dfx from Falconfly.de. These drivers "froze" my system in Windows 98SE. After a reinstall of Windows 98SE I used the FastVoodoo 4.6 drivers, those seem to work (no freesup of my system), but in games like TombRaider III I can select the Voodoo cards but the game only's shows the intro... in the game Drakan Order Of The Flame, the PC says that there is now 3D hardware detected. Strange... Unreal works perfectly... so my cards are allright.

Other games that are not working:

NFS Porche 2000
NFS III
NFS II
Hidden and Dangerous
GTA2

Has anybody got an idea of what is wrong?
