Is hardware Direct3D supported by G200 using new Matrox beta
This is a discussion about Is hardware Direct3D supported by G200 using new Matrox beta in the Windows Hardware category; I did a clean install with Windows 2000 Pro build 2194 and ran dxdiag. The hardware test for direct3d did not run after the software renderer test. Also 3DMark2000 doesn't run because it needs hardware-support for Direct3D.

Has anyone had a different experience with the Matrox Millenium G200?

Matrox has released a beta driver set for the G200 and G400 under W2K. They have some 3D h/w acceleration, both D3D and OpenGL.
However, use them with care, as they're very flakey.

OP
I have the latest Matrox beta drives for W2K. I'm having trouble confirming hardware D3D. Dxdiag doesn't see it. 3DMark2000 doesn't see it. Have you any program using hardware D3D running with a Millenium G200 using the new Matrox beta drivers for W2K?
Flaky?? They downright didnt work... Couldnt go past 640X480 after the install... Had to revert to old drivers.
No powerdesk no nothing...
Ahh well...
