Cannot get S3 Savage 3D to work properly

Hi

I have a friend of mine who can't play games because he has a Savage 3D card
and theres no 3rd party drivers for Direct3D, OpenGL etc. Where can I find
some 3rd party XP drivers for this card?

Hi Sim,

Have you friend try this site: http://www.s3graphics.com/DRVVIEW.HTM
which I got from: http://mvps.org/nibblesnbits/Video.html - Good luck! :-)

P.S.: Your friend should buy an inexpensive card like the Ti4200.

I've suggested that but I'm sure my friend will be happy to test any 3rd
party Savage3D driver in beta stage if anyones programming one.
