Anyone try the Midtown Madness demo? It can't find my V3!

by Josmi Shva » Tue, 10 Aug 1999 04:00:00

Just downloaded the Midtown Madness demo. Install seemed to go fine.
There is a step in the installation where it says it will now detect
your accelerator card (I have Voodoo3 2000 AGP). Then the main screen
appears, but when I go into Graphic Options it only allows a selection
of "Software Renderer." The Voodoo3 isn't even an option. When the game
runs, it runs in software mode which looks horrible and runs like a
slideshow. Any trick to getting the demo to recognize my voodoo3 card?
Specs:
PII-233
64MB RAM
Voodoo3 2000 AGP
DirectX 6.1
Latest drivers from 3dfx site

This won't help you probably, but I have the same card and same
drivers, and the demo found the card without a problem.

I run the demo on a Voodoo3 3000
and it finds it just fine. and the game runs fine.
But I did have to reinstall the drivers.
Try that and see if it help's.
 Good luck..
