Direct3D with Viper V550 and win2k

[Konstantin Zahariev 0]

I read on the compatibility list here that Viper V550 supports Direct3D ONLY with the reference drivers for Riva TNT from NVIDIA. I found working drivers for win2k at Diamond's and NVIDIA sites, but NOT one of them supports neither Direct3D nor AGP.

Can somebody tell me (perhaps the one who tested it for here) where do I find the Riva TNT reference drivers?

The 3.75 drivers that everyone is talking bout are in my opinion the best TNT drivers. I also have a v550 and it kicks the most ass with 3.75 reference drivers. You'll find a link for it in this msg board, I think Eliteman has a post in the hardware section. In any case you're not going to find any working reference drivers from Diamond (they go sold to S3 - they don't endorse nvidia) or nVidia (they don't want to make beta drivers for the "beta" Windows 2000.

 

good luck
