As explained in the readme, it sounds like you need to  turn off
DirectMirrorRendering in your CORE.INI.

From ReadmeD3D.txt:

* DirectMirrorRendering = 1

Most modern 3D cards are able to render the mirror scene directly into the mirror
texture. However some cards or drivers can't do this, and need to draw the mirror
scene on the main backbuffer and then copy the image into the mirror texture. If
you have problems with mirror rendering, such as seeing the mirror image
appearing in the top left corner of the screen, try setting this to 0.

I'm using the D3D patch with a Viper II (newest drivers), Athlon 650 and 128
ram.  The mirrors on the car a black ( a options on) but there is 1 big box
in the left corner of the screen with what appears to be the graphics for
the mirrors (2 side by side boxes = 1 large)  I inserted papy's comments in
the core.ini file.  Any ideas?

Thanks to you and all who replied, it works now,  Another case of premature
patching w/o reading all the way

Considering it's an unsupported patch, you're giving a lot of support ;)
