D3D in W2K

[UberWarrior 0]

I can not for the life of me get D3D to work in Win2000 RC1.

I have OpenGL working but no D3D, I have all the AOpen drivers and the drivers for W2K posted on this site. but they dont work.

I have also checked the Reg. and there are no entries for D3D.

Is there something i am doing wrong????

 

Any help will help.

ditto, I cannot get D3D working whatsoever....

I have V3/3000 and have done everything that dodgy little hack detailed but to _no_ avail ;(

marky what builder are you on ?

[marky 0]

Build 2099. I have also tried it on build 2072, but again couldn't get DX working properly...I have a DxDiag log available if anybody wants to see it.

 

Many thanks, Mark.

The problem is MS disable in builder higher then 2072 so here how you fix

that hehe.

Run c:\winnt\regedit.exe Search for CapabilityOverrid del the key reboot &

now you should have D3D.

You must be use the stock windows2000 Voodoo3 drivers

Where exactly does the CapabilityOverrid registry entry exist? I tried searching for it and could not find it. I tried partial matches on overrid and capabiliity but to no avail. I also can not get D3D to work on my 2099 build. I've tried every driver known to man. I can get opengl to work easily but D3D is a nightmare.

 

I'm on a STB Velocity 4400 TNT card. I've tried native and all the generic drivers available.

Only for a few Video card's, Voodoo3 is one of that had's the switch buildin to the drivers.

So go back 2072 in tell RC2 come out sorry there nothing I can do about it
