these in 3D? Thief 1/2/3, SysShock 2, Need for Speed 3/4/5/6

Also Half Life 1, Aliens vs Predator 1999, Quake 2...
Does anyone play any of these older games in 3D? I am aware they do not work on modern "Nvidia 3D Surround" (yet were the reason I bought a pair of 260gtx's hoping to play them) yet i'm willing to build a retro rig even with win98 and Wicked3D if needed just to play them since they were my favorites growing up.
I cannot find specific information, I know that the 2007 Nvidia XP driver didn't want to play Thief 1 in 3D (but seemed to be listed as working in someone else's internet post for Wicked3D) when I tried, and although Thief 3 works it's no longer supported in the NEW 3D Surround drivers removed on purpose apparently. :(

Just as an update to my own post, i'm seeing that Wicked3D originally played many if not all of these games, but i'm not sure if there was an XP Wicked3D driver or whether any of the Wicked3D stuff is even still available. Since the older Nvidia driver is based off the Wicked3D I was wondering whether anyone could verify whether the games still work, even with as late as the 2007 driver supporting at least 7900 level cards.
