You need older drivers, drivers made before V3 was launched (3dfx changed the logo when they launched V3). Any driver before april, 1999 should be ok.

You can't change the logo in a driver? Like change a file somewhere?

The logo is coded into the drivers, the same way the graphics are coded into games.

You can, but it's not a simple image, it's an animated 3d sequence inside a dll file. If the old logo is that important to you, I think you can make a small effort and install a proper driver. If not, good luck modding the driver.

I wish someone would have figured out how to swap the logo sequence, with all the attention the drivers got back in the day. As it is you will have to use the old version 2.xx drivers to get the old logo. Unfortunately they are speed sensitive (unlike the newer ones),I believe the consensus is that a CPU faster than 700Mhz can cause problems.

I really don't understand. Why do we get those cards? To "go back to the past". Nostalgia, right? Even OP said that the logo is half the reason he got the card. Well, then is it so hard to make a "period correct" system? That includes both hardware and software. If you don't want that, there's always emulators, there's always movies with that spinning logo. Do a little effort and install those drivers.
