Error opening PPT

[vic]

Just loaded Office XP Pro. When opening Power Point I get
the following wrror:
This program has performed an illegal operation and will
be shut down.

If the problem persists, contact the program vendor.

POWERPNT caused a general protection fault
in module 3DFX16V3.DRV at 0008:00000258.

I have Windows 98 with all updates and loaded update to
Office XP Pro.

Any Ideas how to fix this?

This error message occurs due to a conflict between the 3DFX Voodoo graphics
card (and its associated driver) and Microsoft® .NET. There are two possible
solutions to the issue:

The first is to download a more up-to-date driver for the 3DFX Voodoo card. You
can download such a driver from the Voodoo files web site.

The second is to turn off the graphics acceleration on the graphics card. To do
so, follow the steps below:

Right click in empty space on your Desktop and choose PROPERTIES.
Click on the TROUBLESHOOT tab.
Using the slider provided, turn your hardware acceleration to None.
