Man, I miss Voodoo 3dfx days.. :)

Windows 7 is actually really awesome for old-ass games. I got Wing Commander IV: The Price of Freedom w/ the Windows 95 patch working perfectly in it... It was the 64-bit version of Windows 7, too.

That game came out in 1995.

The Good old days.. I still have some old games that works well with 3dfx! to name some, is serious sam1, Resident evil2, Quake1/2/3, Hexen, NFS SE, FF7/8 (D3D for 3dfx), I think thats all I had. =) voodoo still live!

[panties82]

We all would cherish 3DFX times! Its a legacy card though.

I am going to say goodbye to my 3DFx, I bought a new machine.. I put a new videos real soon! =)

@RUDY2295

I'm just showing that 3Dfx runs well in Windows7! =)

[blueshogun96]

Because 3Dfx's legacy will always beat NVIDIA's...

[RUDY2295]

@zorandesign your awesome.

@abdulah786 64-bit OS's Can't use 16-bit programs, I THINK Dark Forces II is 32-bit and only the install program is 16-bit, use a VM or DOSBOX to install it and then move the installed files over. Hope that works.

i just wish that when Nvidia bought the company 3Dfx, they should have continued to develop it instead of throwing the most important parts in the bin.

Looking at games that used 3Dfx back in the days you can really tell how much before thier time those graphics were. As an example, take a look at the water in Aliens vs Predator, things float around in it and gets carried away by waves, also when you walk around in the water the water moves away from the player, and thats back in 1999.

the good ol days xD

Someone seriously still has those laying around? XT represent I guess

I would like to install just 1x

Diamond Monster 3D II 8mb Voodoo 2 card.

What do I have to install for drivers?

I have installed

3Dfx Voodoo 2 SLI (secondary mismatched)

3Dfx Voodoo 2 SLI (secondary)

this does not work... Do I have to install SLI Drivers in anyway also when just 1 card is installed? Does it matter what the main graphics card is? I have a GT 430 with only a DVI output. But I don't have to install the VGA Loop cable in order to get a picture of the voodoo 2 card right?

[abdulah786]

@bluetoaster8822 I can't run Dark Forces II: Jedi Knight... When I try to to the setup it tells me something about cannot run 16bit mode blah blah blah... Windows 7 Ultimate 64...?

@panties82 voodoo2 still lives with all of us older gamers. I still have a huge 3dfx collection with hard to find 3dfx cards too. in fact i have a computer running 2 voodoo 2's in sli . another i use for fun benchmarking my voodoo 1,2, 3 4 5's and some voodoo rush cards.
