When I try and run the demo it crashes with an error about 3dfx??.dll and dies. Has anyone else run the N4 demo under Win2K successfully ? Thanks, Dave

Sounds like a driver issue. The demo has no problems running under Win2000. Eric "DB" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:oA9V5.14875$[email hidden]... > When I try and run the demo it crashes with an > error about 3dfx??.dll and dies. Has anyone else run > the N4 demo under Win2K successfully ?

Eric's right. I'm running it on my W2KAS with a Banshee card in it. Runs smooth. Mike Horton "Eric Busch" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:903a58$gev$[email hidden]... > Sounds like a driver issue. The demo has no problems running underWin2000.

I loaded N4 on my backup system 2Kpro with a voodoo3 and it runs fine. But on my system 2Kpro with a voodoo5 no joy, I still getting 3dfxvm.dll error. I went back to the original July drivers, no difference. It appears to me to be win2k V5 related problem. Eric what kind of graphics card do you have ?

Car selection menu graphics are off a bit, then when I go to race system crashes with an error in 3dfxvm.dll. Memory dump available upon request. This running 3dfx WHQL drivers 1.04.00 on a Win2K Workstation SP1 system with DirectX 8 installed. - George
