I get an error message saying that D3D can't be found. My system is an
AMD K6-200 with an Orchid Righteous 3D (Voodoo 1) card. My video
drivers are the latest offered by Orchid's website.
I get the feeling that the problem is that I don't have DirectX 6 on my
system. (I have DirectX 5).
Does this make any sense? If so, where do I get DirectX 6 drivers?
If this doesn't make sense, any other suggestions would be appreciated.

I've tried both binaries and neither runs on my system.
Any other thoughts?

Does F1RS or any other glide-based title run?
However, it isn't surprising that the direct3D-version doesn't work
with your system - AFAIK it actually needs DirectX6.

F1RS GPL Demo, and all other 3dfx, Glide, D3D games that I have run
fine.
To clarify what's happening: When I double click on the icon ending in
_v, I first get asked what language I want. After clicking on English
(or any of the languages listed), I get a dialog box which says: "Please
insert Monaco Grand Prix Racing Simulation CD-ROM". Clicking on OK
brings back the same dialog box. Cancel kicks me back to the desktop.
I have even tried downloading euro.zip again, this time from a different
site, but I get the same results.
Does anyone have any ideas for me to try?
Thanks!

Did you unzip the file with the directions to use the stored
directories? When you unzip the file, they need to be placed in their
proper directory hierarchy.
