Voodoo 3 runs terribly under XP with Win drivers

With the drivers that came with XP RC2 my 3dfx Voodoo 3 2000 runs terrible. I have tried installing win98 and 2k drivers but it gives me errors on installin them. Basically i get choppy game play in need for speed 4 and 5.

Yeah. Get a different video card.
 
With minimal support in XP, 3dfx cards are worthless. Solid cards are worthless without proper drivers, and unless a 3rd party starts releasing them, you and everybody else that has one they're still using are screwed.
