Kyle,
    Thanks for writing. Looks like we're in the same boat. I too have some
audio hiccups and installed the latest 3dfx reference drivers last night
with no change (for the good that is!) Now, I am unable to play ProPilot99,
when accessing the drop down menus the screen goes berzerk and I have to
shut down. I've also noticed that I cannot run NFS3 in 800x600 because the
screen distorts itself and I cant get to any of the option panels. This is
fine in the 1024x768 resolution. I trying to remove the latest update and
restore the original Guillemot drivers but Windows95 is not being very
cooperative. FYI, I have a 233mmx, 64 sdram, S3 Virge (4meg) and a AWE64SB.

Success so far has been with the following titles:
Maddon99, Need For Speed III, Microsoft Flight Simulator 98, Jet Fighter
Full Burn, Descent II, NHL98, & Forsaken. Working on MotoRacer at the
moment.

Good Luck!
