I'm running Windows 98 SE, nVidia drivers version 77.72

That's your problem right there. Those drivers are way to new for Win9x gaming. Try something like 30.82. Unless your card is of the AGP 8x variety, in which case go for 45.23.

Or is this just an incompatibility with the Geforce4, similar to NFS 3: Hot Pursuit?

I don't remember any particular GeForce4 incompatibilities with NFS3, other than the lack of fog on non-Voodoo cards. What problem did you encounter exactly?

the voodoo I could not only do 640 x 480 and the voodoo II only a maximum resolution of 1024 x 800.
Maybe try with a lower resolution?

Thanks, the 30.82 drivers worked!

In hindsight I'm not even sure why I even had the 77.72 drivers installed. Though I think at one point I was testing GeForce 6800 in this system and probably never switched the drivers back...

Same issue as with NFS: Porsche Unleashed. Though with the 30.82 drivers, NFS 3 also ended up working.

To clarify, the issue wasn't with the Voodoo2 card. It worked fine.

The issue was with the GeForce4 which has now been resolved via downgrading my drivers to 30.82.
