Ok, I have a Voodoo3 3k AGP as well, and I can get Pete's OGL driver to work...but as was said above, it's dog-slow. If you want a speed-alternative to Lewpy, try Pete's D3D - I've found in some games it runs faster than Lewpy's, though in most it will run slower. With my machine, I run it all the time, but I'm at seriously high speed (1 Ghz, 266 BUS, 128 DDR). Also, I find the best video mode for me is *NOT* R4 G4 etc., it's the R5 G5 etc....I'm not sure how many bits that comes out as, but it works fine.

Also, if you DO get it to work (the suggested posts above mine say what is required, I don't know what else to say...), be aware that you WILL see graphic glitches - The voodoo3 OGL library is...shall we say...SCREWED UP!

Gawd, I haven't needed to think about speed-tweaking in a LONG time, hope that helps.
