I have the same problem, especially with q3a...I usually just tap escape twice

Whenever I try to play quake3, I get a red screen, then all the colors are garbled...any ideas?

I found out how to fix this retarded problem. Simply copy 3dfxvgl.dll from x:\winnt\system32 to the quake3 folder and rename it opengl32.dll

Here's the whole system message list...maybe you can tell the error from here...

I have build 2183...all my games werk except q3

by the way, the instructions from seldzar or whatever his name is in the hacked drivers are completely unintelligable...a translation would be greatly appreciated

My 3dfx Games all Crash on Exit!! They run fine with these new drivers that I acquired, but whenever I try to exit, the entire screen is garbled and I am forced to reboot!! Any Ideas? email me!

I have RC3 2183, a voodoo3 2000 and many games. I can't get any to work! Kingpin, UT, and many others included. An idea of how to get some 3dfx drivers would be very helpful. An email at weirdo192@aol.com would be greatly appreciated as well.
