Hello everybody,

I have tried to run Half-Life under Win2k and this is my problem:

I have Quantum 3D AGP Raven video card based on the Voodoo Banshee chipset. Therefore, in order to run this card I need openGL. For these Voodoo cards I need to select 3DFX mini driver in option menu. It works in Win 98. But it fails to recognize installed openGL components in Win2k. I have checked the files and I do not see anything that would object openGL to run. I need to run a server in Win2k and you know that running server in Win 98 is not safe.

Any suggestions?

I have been fighting with this whole weekend and, pleeeaaasse I need some answers.

Thanks in advance

P.S. I can post what kind of error it gives me when I start single player in Half-life.

I am talking about Windows 2000, not Windows XP.

Also I heard that Voodoo Banshee drivers do not support miniGL. However, Quantum 3D AGP Raven drivers support miniGL.

you still should goto www.voodoofiles.com (http://www.voodoofiles.com)
It has ALL drivers you could even think of for 3dfx cards.
And 99.999999% of XP drivers also work on w2k!

I had the same exact problem and I downloaded and installed the drivers at this location and I'm once again owning in Counter-Strike and Half-Life...
