Been there.  Done that.  And anything that said "3dfx" or "voodoo".

P.S.  Drive Cleaner says only works on ATI and Nvidia drivers.  Main card is a Hercules Prophe G2 Mx400 with Nvidia Detonator drivers.  I don't think I need drive cleaner to remove these drivers.

My son has an old game he wanted installed on his computer.  It was made for 3dfx cards.  I tried an old Diamond Monster 3D II card with the original drivers.  Wouldn't work. Tried un-installing drivers. Every time I tried, computer would freeze. Re-boot, try un-installing, computer freeze.  Finally removed card physically, started up computer and found that the drivers were gone.  However, every time I try to go into display properties I get an error message that says " Cannot find Diamond Monster 3D II card, contact Diamond tech support"  I have gone thru the registry and removed everything that said Diamond Monster, went thru all the files with "search" and removed some more files, but this message keeps comming back.  Does anyone have any idea where this could be hiding?? I'm at a loss.

I have no idea what I'm doing. I could use some help.  My son has a PIII 800Mhz. computer with a Hercules Prophet G2 MX200 video card on Windows 98SE.  He has some old games that are optimized for the 3dfx chipset that are difficult to run on the Hercules card.  I have a Diamond Monster II card I would like to install.  I have downloaded FastVoodoo2 4.0 Gold Edition Drivers.  Will this driver work with this card?  I have a friend that is telling me no. I need Diamond 'only' drivers to get this card to work.  I'm thinking a Voodoo2 is a Voodoo2.  Can anyone help me?? Also, how difficult is it to set up the refresh rate.  The release note mention something about doing it manually.
