Okay, I'm pretty ticked off right now. I've been waiting too long to enable my Direct 3D features on windows 2000. I've downloaded the latest drivers from the manufacturers of Nvidia and Microsoft to enable this, and it finally worked.
For some reason, however, when I installed Descent 3 the first time, it didn't start at all, saying I had an Invaild CD-ROM, so I decided to use OpenGL instead of direct3D. The second time, after installing the patch, it actually worked. However, every other game installed on my computer requiring some form of hardware acceleration gets a black screen and all of my Blizzard games have a standard speed of 10fps; it moves so fast now that the sound follows it about 1 second after I press something.
I'm thinking that Descent 3 modified the video card registry when I was tweaking the graphics properties of the game. However, I'm not entirely sure. Does anyone know what just happened?
