I have this PC:
Pentium Pro 333 mhz(actually it's a 500 Mhz P3 SLOT 1 but the motherboard only supported P2 and up to 333 mhz 🤣)
128 mb ram
6 gb hard disk
Sound Blaster 16 ISA
Voodoo 1 (4 MB Unknown Manufacturer) with a S3 Trio 64V+
TEAC 52x CD Writer

I have installed the latest 3dfx reference and mini GL drivers.Everything runs pretty nice and I'm quite amazed at how different some Glide versions of games are.Take Fifa 98 for example,awesome weather effects,smooth gameplay,but anyway problem is that up to know I've had no problem with the card until I installed Warhammer Dark Omen and Machines(by Midway I think it's an RTS).
The games play smoothly but all hell breaks loose each time I play.The textures look brushed out and change colors for no apparent reason,making unplayable.At first I thought I should reinstall drivers and I did but nothing happened.I reinstalled Direct X 5 and then 7 but again the same thing.I reinstalled the games but again I was out of luck.I'll try to capture a video tomorrow.

Hope you'll help me.I'll also try to use older drivers.FFVIII and Dungeon Keeper D3D also have the same problem.
