How to identify my 3dfx video card?

[jyates]

Hi all,

I've got a friend's computer that has win98se on it and he just formatted the drive
and didn't make note of what the video card was before doing so and he has no
drivers for it.

Here is what I know.....

It has 3dfx interactive stb systems 1998 on it and it's an AGP card. It has a tv output kind of like a ps2 mouse on it. I
forget what that tv out connection is called!

It has a silver aluminum heatsink on the chip. There may be some markings on the chip but I
haven't taken the heatsink off as of yet.

There is a paper tag that has the numbers 6000213872 on it also.

Does anyone have a clue as to the model of card I have? I need to download drivers to get
him up and going.

Thanks in advance for any and all help!
Jim

Voodoo Banshe or Voodoo 3??

That sounds like a Voodoo3 3000 AGP w/ TV out.

Probably looks like this, eh?

You can get driver from VoodooFiles.com

Ding Ding Ding! Give that man a cigar! That is the exact card we have and I downloaded the
drivers and it appears to be working great.

Thanks a TON for the help!
