Now, here's the problem...my system keeps crashing to the desktop during any game using D3D (particularly Nascar3). I've fiddled with nearly everything, and I've tried many different reference drivers. Anyone have a clue? My system...FIC VA503+ w/ latest BIOS, K6-2/400, Win98SE, 64MB PC100, Guillemot Xentor 32 (TNT2 Ultra) w/ latest BIOS, SB live Value!, IBM 8.4GB, blah, blah, blah. I've used both Guillemot's 2.40s and NVidia's 3.53s with the latest 1/3/99 AGP driver from VIA, as well as all of VIA's other patches and updates (4in1 drivers). And... Is anything really Plug-N-Play? -Keith
Try knocking the resolution down one notch. My system was doing it at 800x600 and quit at 640x480. My conjecture is that the 8 meg my on-board Direct 3d video adapter is taking out of the resident 64-meg of system memory was just the straw that broke the camel's back.
