I saw this article on 3DNews.net:
     "Thanks to the SE guys for pointing out some new Windows95/98
drivers for the Hercules TNT card. Thanks Amer@SE You can actually use
these drivers with most any TNT card and they come with cool utils. Try
this at your own risk though eh?"

So I thought, why not try it out? I have an Elsa Erazor II AGP Riva TNT
card and I knew the Hercules drivers have the excellent 'Hercumeter'
utility, which lets you overclock the core and memory settings. I
downloaded the file and installed the drivers. After reboot, it was
amazing!! It was like having a Dynamite TNT in my computer! Everything
worked, all the settings, the gamma, and even the 'Hercumeter'
functioned as if I had the real thing!! Totally awesome! I don't have to
use stupid PowerStrip any more, or waste any money registering it! I
have a totally viable overclocking utility now, and it works with any
Riva TNT card!!! With PowerStrip I was only able to go up to 108 core /
115 memory, but now I can hit a rock solid 115 core / 125 memory!!!
Unbelievable!
