The latest release of Windows NT 4 drivers will work IF AND ONLY IF ACPI support is not installed. I could not get the NT4 drivers to work no matter what I did when using the ACPI HAL. Go to device manager an install the driver like any other. You will have to force it to use the driver (NT 4 drivers don't contain the necessary PnP id's). Select Sound, Video, and Game Controllers and browse for the INF file in the VHX NT4 drivers directory. If Windows complains about unsigned drivers just click OK. If it doesn't complain then something is wrong (have you changed your Security Policy or are you running Server maybe?). This works perfectly for me. At first there were a lot of graphics glitches. After a video driver update (I have a Voodoo3 3000) it worked perfectly. NOTE: Of course the Windows 9x drivers won't work. Also AIMS Labs released a WDM driver for the card. However these won't work either as the drivers don't have support for NT and the INF file doesn't have the necessary NT configuration sections.
