If you are useing a Voodoo 3 and you see a great deal of lag, here is something you can try. I use a Voodoo 3 2000 and it helped me.
  1. 1. Get the latest voodoo 3 drivers (1.07 or 1.03) which can be found here @ http://www.voodoofiles.com
  2. Once the drivers are installed go to the 3Dfx icon that has been added to your system tray (next to the clock on the task bar) and right click it, set the color depth to 16 bpp
  3. double left click the icon to pull up the 3Dfx advanced features window.
  4. Click the + Next to the Direct3D Option to expand the menu
  5. Click the + next to the Level of Detail Bias
  6. Click the number that has appear under the level of detail bias, a slider will appear.
  7. Move the Slider all the way towards best performance.
  8. Click Okay
Good luck,
Cutter
