you need teh techworks drivers (you can get them of their site), or you
can buy the NE3D kit from griffin technologies (that includes conversion
cables).
The drivers only support 4 meg supposedly, the rest won't be used, and
there have been some troubles reported with a 6 mb versions of 3dfx cards
(although the pure 3D (also 6 mb) works).Don't know about the Innovision.
