Thief and Pure 3d 2

Plasmaphish
I snagged the pure 3d2 drivers for my Canopus video card. . . however Thief apparently doesn't recognize them. Does anyone else have this problem? Is there a different driver that I can use and if so where can I find it?.

WWII Fighters under Win2k Workstation

David_Beoulve
It is listed as a compatable game under however, even with the latest patch (for the game and the NT 5 patch for my Voodoo 3 3000) the game doesn't start. It just doesn't respond. I used apcompat. exe to tell the game it was on a different version of Windows, but nailed me on the MSVCRT.

Thief--don't get any sound under Win2K

KaRRiLLioN
Thief runs fine under win2K, but there's no sound. I'm using Win2K Pro, build 2195 with the drivers that installed from the CD. Half-Life and most everything else I try has sound. Should I install those leaked Creative drivers? I've searched all these forums and the Thief forums to no avail on this.

Anyone got problems with voodoo3 retail drivers for win2k

Hellstorm
At first, the retail drivers seems to work. Now I almost always get a black screen when loading half-life, quake 3 or unreal tournament. Sometimes I can start the game, but if i try to change the player, controls or graphic driver then the black screen comes up again.

Q3 lighting

Goaks
I cant seem to ajust the lighting properly in Q3. The slider in the graphics option menu moves in either direction all the way, but the lighting only ajusts a fraction of what it should. Anyone else run into this? I am using a GeForce DDR by guillemont.

PLEASE HELP!!! SOF DEMO PROBLEMS!

Fudge3000
Please help me, anyone, for the problem I am experiencing is not so important in relation to actually being able to play SOF, but more importantly it might involve a problem with my computer. When I installed and ran SOF for the first time, it ran beautifully, and everything was the way it should be.

Bye-Bye supreme snowboarding

A-guy
I wrote to info-games for the second time. The first was before official 3dfx drivers were present. I wrote them this morning and this is the response I got. - The game is not WIN2K compatible. No where on the box does it state so.

High Heat 2001 a no go

Ballplayer
High Heat 2001 apparantly requires directx 7. 0a to run. This sucks because the demo worked so I haven't worried about making a win 98 partition. Has anyone found a way around this and is there any chance this can be fixed with an updated directx or patch?.

Force Commander?

EEMeltonIV
The main NT Compatible page has a posting saying Force Commander doesn't work under Win2K. Ignoring for a moment the fact that the fella was likely either using a Beta or pirated copy (game just went gold this week), which thus makes any tests questionable at best, and the problem seemed to be video only, has anyon ...

DirectX has wiped off 1024*768 in all D3D games !!

Prince Vaillant
I got some very strange problems since I've installed W2K pro with games. First, the refresh rates problems I've correct by tweaking the driver. Then, Quake3 who ran at 60 FPS yesterday night and today weirdly at 23.
