I downloaded and did the initial install of N4 Demo without any problems. When I first startup N4, the N4 Graphics Configuration dialog asks for the desired renderer. Upon selecting "Direct3D", I get a message "Could not locate any display adapters properly configured for the selected renderer type" and cannot procedure further. I am puzzled why I am getting this problem since I use GPL regularly using Direct3D and have had no problems with it. I am using WindowsME, 600mhz cpu, and a Voodoo3 2000 board with the latest driver kit (1.07.00). Has anybody else had this problem and learned how to overcome it? Thanks for your help. Dave Heindel

I installed N4 on three PCs. It failed on the two running Windows ME, and works great on the one with Windows 98 SE. The failures are: PII 300/266, each 128 mb ram, 16mg ATI Xpert 99 PCI and 16 mb Viper 550 AGP. The readme file states it works with ME. I also tried, and failed, on a Windows 2000 Pro, but that's not supported. "Dave Heindel" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:90bkgc$6g9$[email hidden]...

The demo has no issues on WinME. You don't give any specifics, but it could be video driver related. You should get the latest Rage128 and TNT drivers from ATI and NVIDIA respectively. -- Eric "Richard S" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:1FkW5.275299$[email hidden]... > I installed N4 on three PCs.
