At my HD ;)

I have 3 installers. the Build 22 seems to be the latest one. Tell me if everything works well. I just used it with Mac OS 9.1. The VooDoo 5500 is still a damn cool card. And the only one offering RAVE, Glide and OpenGL!

Well in future we need a response time below 5 minutes, even if 7 min. 4 seconds seems ok including checking the versions and packing the file :-p

LMAO, not only is Mat talented and helpful, he moonlights as a comedian, I spit coffee all over my monitor on that one.

PS: much better that "Diehard response time"

Did it work?

BTW I stumbled across a public place to download all VooDoo drivers: http://www.voodoofiles.com/type.asp?cat_id=0 (Mac drivers for 5500 are at the 2nd page).

If someone is still searching for 3dfx Voodoo drivers and or Flash Tools for the Voodoo 4/5:

After days of search I stumbled upon this:
http://www.macintoshrepository.org/781-3dfx-voodoo-drivers-1-2-3-4-5-utilities-flash-roms?ns=1

The mac_3dfx.sit (19.95 MB) file contains everything you ever need. Successfully flashed back a Mac Voodoo 5 from a PC to a Mac ROM after realizing it's not possible with a Windows/DOS PC.

It contains all drivers for all cards as well. I will start hosting a Mac 3dfx section on my website soon. (In case this last source goes offline as well).
