When you unzip them you should have three .exe files. Execute rampage-OpenGL.exe and it will unzip in a folder. Now you've got the 3dfxogl.dll. Get this file and rename it to opengl32.dll and copy it in a game folder where the game-exe is located.

What about the second rampage card ?

No.
I need to measure with my IR Laser Gun.
Only one in full working condition. the decaped chip need to be repaired before.
The Rampy A0 + decaped chip are in transit to Oscar. I hope he can repair it.

Some interesting informations:

The temperature on the gpu cooler reach 37/38 max.
The temperature on RAM go to 43/44 max.

I have taken some pictures with fraps (and they are better than in game for the colors).

Will upload this morning i think.

a bad new: quake 3 doesn't boot with your second tip Sad

I have copy the dll file everywhere: in quake 3 exe folder, in system and system32 folder. but always the same error message. do you have an idea? perhaps it's my demo?

Or perhaps I need to edit the cfg file and put a good resolution add these command lines?

seta r_mode -1
seta r_customwidth 800
seta r_customheight 600

Some FRAPS screenshots:

As you can see the colors are nice with fraps.

Half-Life:

Unreal Tournament:

Better large resolution:

In game:

Videos:

GPU cooler temperature:

Seems this time Dominik found right Resistor value. Excellent work!!!

@Michel,

Take one picture using sidebar_trip pattern but not zoomed.
Like this one, with dongle and not dongle.

Added. Take another one when pc is booting up and you get info about info CPU, memory, bios, so on... Are letter shifteds?

Thanks,
Oscar.

Already taken look my previous reply (sidebar_trip pattern).

640*480:

http://img4.hostingpics.net/pics/196536DSC07607.jpg

With the dongle in this resolution we have a very good display no?

ScanDisk:

BSOD:

Seems to be good no?

Without dongle (BIOS):

http://img4.hostingpics.net/pics/389589DSC07433.jpg

@Loeschzwerg:

I will try tomorrow.
but in 1280*1024 seem we have a blured screen why?

Try using 75hz @ 640x480 and above. The image should start blurring here too.

Would be nice to know if the original dongle acts the same at that resolution.

It's better if Nightbird can send us all the values of her original rampage dongle.
If you want to contact her, you can wait until the next year to have an answer. This girl is a ghost.
Perhaps you can forget your idea.
