I'm thinking of upgrading to WinXP (from 98SE) and I'm wondering if the official 3DFX Win2k or 98 drivers will work under XP? I've also seen 3rd Party WinXP drivers and I'm wondering if anyone tried them, does it work well?

If none of the above is a good solution, any advice on using my Voodoo3 3000 in XP (other than buying a new vid card)?

mine worked but xp went crazy when I was installing the win2k drivers saying they were not sertified blah blah blah. But one thing was my card performed like 70% of what it did in 98 though....

I've had good luck with these drivers. Stable so far and they run UT and Star Trek Voyager: Elite Force as well as Win2k did.

I can't get open gl to work, at least it doesn't work with the XP native drivers, and I used the wickedGL drivers to run quake3, but it still wouldn't run the 3d screensavers. I haven't tried very hard to get it to work, however b/c I don't play quake3 anymore, or have much of a use for 3d, as I hardly game.
