I have noticed same thing with my Diamond Monster 3D 4MB.. Don't care about
what games say, you have the latest drivers with DX6 support in your machine
:)

For example, "Return To Krondor" says I have 3DFX DirectX 5 driver, and I
have
just installed latest reference drivers for my card.. It's common problem,
maybe
those bastards have just forgotten to change number 5 to number 6.. :)

>I have DirectX 6.1 installed on Windows 98, and have just run DXDIAG on my
>system. All the tests run great.
