first off, here's my system.. p3-450, 512mb ram, voodoo 3 3000, win2k
i just did a fresh install of win2k on this system.. installed half life and counter strike, but when i changed the mode to opengl, it didn't work.. gave me a "grsstselect: non-existent sst" error in windows.. then popped back into cs, and said that my video card doesn't support opengl.. i installed the newest drivers from 3dfx... these are the original drivers.. 1.03.00... the original ones didn't even work.. gave me some funny error:
error, subsystemvendorid:
pci/ven_blahblahblah
is not listed in c:\temp|driver2k\voodoo3.inf
please update the c:\temp\driver2k\voodoo3.inf file so install can procede
ok, so i get the voodoo3.inf file from my friend (he has the exact same card, running win 2k, and the same driver file) but the voodoo3.inf file is completely different.. his file is like 3k, while mine was like 24k... anyway.. so i still overwrite it.. and now i can install without that error... i reboot and still no go... i've uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers a few times.. i've un/reinstalled hl and cs updates twice too...
if anyone has any sort of suggestion i may have missed, please let me know.. thanks a lot
