GPL V3 and W2K anyone?

Has anyone got GPL working under Glide in W2K with a V3 3000?  It works for
me in software and partly in OpenGL, but Glide, no!
Is it the same for everyone? a driver problem? or what?
Thanks,
Iain

Yes.  Doesn't seem to like to switch video modes, but other
than that it works great.

Sorry, but I can only see W9x beta drivers there. Where are the new beta W2K
drivers mentioned?
Thanks,
Iain

I'm sorry Tony maybe I'm being stupid here, but I see the official W2K
drivers, new beta W9x drivers, older NT drivers, but no new beta W2K!
What am I doing wrong?

Err - no you are not going stupid :)

I downloaded the official W2K drivers to overcome a weird bug with the V3
drivers supplied with W2K in IE5.

I also got the the beta V2 W2K drivers for another PC

I guess I am getting confused - sorry!

Tony!  Long time no see!  

I just installed win2k on one of my systems and tried to get vroc working
on it - no joy.  Did you have to do anything weird/strange/unexpected to
get it to work for you?

GPL runs fine, btw.

You say GPL runs fine. Are you running with a Voodoo3 in Glide mode?

John!

I get 2 messages referring to riched20.dll otherwise it runs fine (I can
join races & chat ok)

Just a thought - if it is a new install it needs the ini file in the vroc
folder.

I'm actually using the "software" rastorizer because htis is a dedicated
server machine.

To get rid of that error message, *delete* RICHED20.DLL from the winvroc
folder.

I have the ini file fix, and I'even trie completely
uninstalling/reinstalling both GPL and winVROC.

I thought so. Yep, GPL works OK in software, but not GLide.  It is
unwatchable in software I feel.
