N3 + TNT2 + D3d

by Andrew Britto » Tue, 09 Nov 1999 04:00:00

I picked up a generic TNT2 32mb AGP card.  Installed fine.  Reinstalled
N3 to select the D3D option upon installation.

When I attempt to launch the game, I get a blank screen but I hear the
intro music and the .avi start up.  Never comes to the game screen.

Any ideas?

Pii-333mhz
128mb Ram
i/o Magic tnt2

was using a voodoo2 12mb to run the game in glide.  No problems there
but framerates weren't the greatest.  Wanted to compare to D3D using
this TNT2.

Thanks,

Andrew

Andrew,

Did you reinstall Direct X after installing the new TNT2 card?

Be wary of that I/O magic video card, I bought it and found out it was
a ripoff.  You'd be better off buying another voodoo 2 and running them
in sli mode.  You'd probably get way better frame rates.
