Fungus

I tried a million guides for Win2000 but they all lead to one result: he game wont work ^^ but hey, thanks anyways! to get to the point: it seems to work fine now on my WinXP rig, since I found the reg-entry! I'll let you know, when Im in trouble again

what about installing DirectX 9c?? geez... ...or doing what the error message says.

omg, a reply! well, I did that (I'm not THAT dumb ) but it seems to select SW-rendering automatically. whatever I do... I also tried to run it with "-d3d1" in the command-line. When I do this, it returns to the desktop without any errors. and BTW: I finally found a Glide-wrapper wich actually SEEMS to work. whenever I start the game I hear the menu-music and the sounds when moving the coursur over a button, but I dont see anything... weird

yeah, i bet this has been asked a million times, but what I think the search-function here sucks, so i registered my problem is Need for Speed 4: High Stakes (german)... not the game itself, but the fact that everything above a TNT2 is unupported. I mean, it should work anyways (well, it actually does) but only in Software-Rendering-Mode D: As you may know, SW-Rendering is not realy a pleasure for eye and... err.. and the fun, basically. So, how do I get it to work in Hardware-Rendering? Already tried three different Glide Emulators/Wrappers, none of them worked... my sys-specs: Athlon XP 1700+ @ 2000MHz AOpen AK79G Mainboard 512MB Infineon (Single channel *sniff* ) GeForce FX5900 XT (that "Golden Sample" thingy from Gainward) 120GB Seagate Barracuda so, thx in advance!
