WHY I CAN NOT SWITCH TO 3DFX DRIVER IN QUAKE 3 ?
 

I CAN NOT USE VOODO DRIVER IN QUAKE III
I HAVE PCI VOODO 4 4500 32 MB
M755LMR MOTHERBOARD(SOUND & VGA ONBOARD)
RAM 128 MB PC-100
CPU CELERON 566 MHZ

I DON T KNOW WHAT TO DO! PREFORMANCE OF THIS CARD ARE VERY BAD,(SPECIALY WHEN IS MANY BOTS ON THE SCREEN)-VOODO4

I THINK MAYBE THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH RAM
ON THE MANUAL IT SIGNS ALLSO PC-133 SYSTEMBOARD,I USE PC-100?

You don't NOT use the Voodoo setting in Q3 for a V3 card. You use Standard OpenGL.

The Voodoo video mode is for Voodoo2 cards only, because they don't use an OpenGL ICD.

There's nothing wrong with your RAM. The Celeron only runs on a 66Mhz bus. You have 100Mhz SDRAM. It just that your mobo supports 133Mhz SDRAM. Don't worry about it.

I have an great idea.
get a big bag put your pc in it and trash it

or buy an g-force 2
voodoo is a nice card but i personally mis the performance.

Maybe an other thought you have an onboard vga card ? Check if it is disabled properly.
the best way to disable it is on your mobo.

Let me answer a little more in depth here since everyone's out in left field, and I have a typo in my original post.

The Voodoo setting in Quake3 is ONLY for Voodoo2 cards. All other cards including Voodoo4 use OpenGL. They had to do that because the V2 doesn't have a true OpenGL ICD and the OpenGL driver file has a different name.

Slow downs with Bots has NOTHING to do with you ram or your video card. Bots use massive amounts of CPU time to compute the Artificial Intelligence. You may only be able to run 3 or 4 bots. Set the number of bots to a value where the computer runs smoothly.
