1: Start Winimage. Load c.img as before. Create a folder, something like drivers. Then goto the Folder, then choose Image from the Menubar > Inject, then point Winimage to the 3dfx driver you've downloaded. exit winimage
2: Start Dosbox. Wait for Windows to load. Goto the Directory where the 3dfx driver is. Run the program. Choose the same folder as where the driver is, this makes the following step easier.
3: Then goto the Control Panel: Start > Settings > Control Panel.Then go to System. Then to the Device Manager Tab. Click on the + alongside the sound, video and game controllers. Then select the Voodoo graphics. Then on Properties, then Driver Tab, Update Driver. Then select next till you get to the screen 'What do you want Windows to do?' there select the second option: 'Display a list..' Then on Have Disk. Then Browse, to where the driver is stored (step c2). It should install up to a point, then complain that there is a newer file that the installation wants to override, keep the file and complete the installation. Restart Windows. (Dosbox might hang here, Just close dosbox and start it again. That's all to it really
