The PT70-3DArtist (S3 VIRGEDX) is a specific graphics driver related to the S3 Graphics ViRGE/DX graphics chipset, which was used in certain PCs during the late 1990s and early 2000s. The S3 ViRGE/DX was one of the earlier 3D graphics accelerators, and the "3DArtist" could be a name given to a specific PC or product line that used this chipset. The driver is necessary to enable the graphics functionality, such as video rendering and hardware acceleration, for older systems running Windows.
