Driver Update Problems

I downloaded and installed new drivers for Voodoo2 cards from 
www.download.com.  Upon my reboot after the drivers were updated, I got the 
following error on the reboot:

  Error in 3dfxv2ps.dll
  Missing entry: UpdateRegSettings

Anybody know what this is?

I have the 12MB card, Matrox G200 and Win98SE.

The 3Dfx drivers install a registry entry to reset the V2 registry settings,
runs only once. It only works with their 3dfcv2ps.dll. Use MSStarup.exe, the
StartUp tab to kill the entry. I had the same after installing 3Dfx drivers
using the Creative control panel.

Hey thanks Marc I had this error too,

An alternative to using the "msstartup" which i havent head of,
is to use your Win CD and look for the POLEDIT program.

THis will allow you to open reg, and check system startup "run" settings.

I am going to remove this using my method. If anyone else needs advice on
how to do this let me know.
(on 98 CD it is TOOLS\RESKIT\NETADMIN\POLEDIT
If anyone needs guidance to open the relevant bit of registry let me know)
