This question is for voodoo4 users. I see on 3dfx website, there are two drivers currently being distributed:
1.04.00 (WHQL)
1.04.01 (BETA)

Question: which version are Voodoo4 4500 AGP users using? I just got this card real cheap, and want to know which driver I should go with. Thanks.

I've had my V4 for quite a while now and have only used the WHQL driver. Everything has worked fine with this driver. Personally, I would stay with the driver that is certified by the WHQL.

I'd say go with the beta driver, it's a bit more recent and therefore likely includes a few bug fixes. 3dfx drivers were always very reliable, and WHQL certification is over-rated IMHO.
