Driver-update: FastVoodoo2 4.0 Gold Edition

De mensen van 3dfxzone.it hebben nieuwe drivers gebakken voor de Voodoo2-videokaarten van 3dfx. De stuurprogramma's voor Windows 9x/Me zijn een tijd geleden al uitgebracht en daar zijn onlangs ook die voor Windows 2k/XP verschenen. Hieronder is het changelog gepost, welke je kan vinden in de release notes:

• Two 3dfx GLide technology demos included in this package
• Improved compatibility with AMD processors based machines
