    You tried 3dfx minidriver at 640x460 and it didn't work? What was the error you got? If that gets squirrely, you can try the wickedgl drivers posted at <a href='http://www.voodoofiles.com/471' target='_blank'>http://www.voodoofiles.com/471</a>, but that should be a last resort.

    Wow! How did you get a Voodoo 3 working on XP? Mine never worked, so I got a GeForce4 420 MX. Perhaps you can blame XP for this one, as Voodoo cards aren't supported very well under it.

    **edit** tried the WickedGL drivers and everything for trying to get it to work on XP too.

    It's not a download as much as an upgrade. Which means get yourself a better comp <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
    try running HL in win98 mode, right click the shortcut, click properties and it is in there somewhere.

    OK! its not my computer anymore!!!! it just won't let me in because of WON.net

    Don't mean to get off topic, but it's happening to me too.

    But to your right-click problem, I think you have a old video card.
  • redVampredVamp Join Date: 2003-02-10 Member: 13391Members
    old OLD!?!? lol

    Everything seems to be fine now (my video card isn't old <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->) i played a cs server with Direct3D 640x400 and everything ran... smoothy acualy. I expected frame lag

    now im just looking for a server witch isn't full ill update later

    A Voodoo 3 is definitely old hardware. While you may be able to get the game working, there will be other problems in other games. If you know you won't upgrade your whole pc in a while, but can afford a cheap new video card, then try to find a cheap new one. Check out the GF3 Ti 200 and see if that's cheap enough.
