Hi. Ive recently got hold of a canopus voodoo 1 and im having trouble getting it working. Ive got it with a pentium II 333 and a s3 trio64.
I have all the latest drivers but selecting glide or the voodoo card crashes the game or runs but not displaying textures correctly.
Is the card broke or is it another issue? Thanks guys.
I've seen similar behavior before. Try using an older driver like this one:

I always test Voodoo1 cards in pure DOS with TOMB3DEM
Requests are also possible... /msg kixs

Your card is broken, it's TMU memory failure. You can try to underclock it though.
I must be some kind of standard: the anonymous gangbanger of the 21st century.
Don't be so quick to say it's broken. I remember having a similar issue and it was fixed with tweaking the BIOS and using a slightly older driver, if memory serves me well. I remember getting corruption on Dark Omen and it was resolved after that.
Could also be motherboard acting weird with the Voodoo1? Remember, Voodoo 1 are somewhat finnicky, AFAIK anything above PII 400MHz will make them behave oddly, crash etc. Are you using a motherboard with the 440BX chipset or maybe a Via chipset?

Asus p2b, intel 440bx yes. Will try an older driver.
Hello 😀
Have you got it working? If you decide to give up will be able to make a offer, will then try and replace the SOJ's.
Just fooling around.
I've only had luck with the Canopus drivers. I tried like 2 generic 3dfx drivers, and didn't feel like trying 10 more.
