Anyone know where I can track down the original, 'pay-for' driver CD that came in the retail Metabyte EyeScream package? This is the one that lets you use the H3D glasses using *any* Voodoo2, not just the Metabyte version. If anyone has one and would like to create an .ISO, I would really appreciate it. I believe the CD is roughly 550MB in size and when installing any driver updates, the GUI prompts for this CD.

I'm not referring to the drivers in the following post, which are specific to the Metabyte Voodoo2:

Or these...

I guess I have that, but not as an ISO, just an archive with all the contents. I'll try to find it later today.

...I knew that was you again... 😁

The Metabyte CD is sufficient for fulfilling the installers request for the CD.
Which version are you trying to install? I think I remember having problems with 5.02 not working and had to use 4.12.

The contents are different from what tgod posted, but I assume that the result should be the same.
Please tell us the results of the tests! 😀

Actually I made some low bid and stopped as I'm too tired of negotiating with the stubborn German sellers to accept PayPal and to ship packages abroad. So I decided to let this one go.

Thank you sir! I will probably create a new thread for this once I start testing. Always been interested in these H3D sets.
