I'd think Voodoo3 is the limiting factor here.

Try different drivers. Maybe even reference ones from 3dfx.

So far i tried all the amigmerlin drivers 3dhq betas ones and same thing. Like i said runs great no problems if anything i get slight tearing because sometimes it goes past 85fps at 1024x768. Ill try some of the refrence ones as well.

I wanted to try the voodoo3 on w2k because they have more current 3rd party driver support on that os.

So you have to enable 3dnow extensions as well?. Like with a k6-2?

Well quake 3 runs great but wow the textures look like shit why.

The voodoo 3 supports a max texture size of 256x256

I agree but on w98 its looks great at the same res just on w2k it doesnt. Only difference is it runs faster since im going from a p3 667 to athlon xp. Its just look like testures are missing looks bland

3dnow! extensions are used videodriver-side and are automatically used where available

Ask old hardware questions in Marvin. This is for Windows games on modern systems.

Will do sorry.

Googled and i found that on v1.32 they released some .dll's that gave athlon xp users a boost. Im still in v1.11.

Those DLLs are out-of-date unsupported curiosity experiments. Update to v1.27g at least (1.30 adds some bloat)
