I think you need to use an even older driver then 5x.xx. My cards from the 6000 series included I have never ever ever needed to use above 4x.xx on any of my 30 retro machines. The 28.xx drivers are the earliest drivers for that card

The competition is now over and Doogie won with his 286,5 frames per second. A big Congratulation to Doogie for his awesome submission. I will send Doogie a 3DFX voodoo II card as the grand prize 😀

The targeted cpu is amd:s K6-2 and K6-3 cpus. And the plan is to merge the code with our tweaked source code and recompile the code with VS2005. VS2005 works with windows98 GCC has the -march=k6-2 and -m3dnow compiler flags to let the compiler do the optimization. I've always kind of wondered how …

Oh and maybe think about swapping the VS2K5 compiler out for a recent MinGW/gcc - 19 years of additional optimizations ought to gain you another percentage point or two. So you mean that if we compile the source code with MinGW/gcc we could get some extra performance compared with compiling with …
