WOW!

I just want to check these few points, JimmyK.

1. These drivers enable D3D, direct draw and OpenGL.

2. The direct draw test actually draws something.

3. The D3D output is O.K (i.e not really slow or with poly errors).

 

If this driver passes all these points, I'm there!

(Now I've just gotta find decent drivers for my Sh*t MX300).

 

Thanks,

Morto.

Tried 3.52. D3D and DDraw work both OK. At least till now smile.gif

 

The 3.52 drivers aren't anymore at telekotz.de (kinda legal stuff)

Using:

Build 2128

DirectX7 Final Release

NVidia 3.52 drivers

 

Everything appears to work.

DXDIAG - both DD and D3D work

UT - using D3D

Q3A - using OpenGL

Tirtanium 1.60 - using both D3D and OpenGL

 

Based on this, I'm tempted to updated my day-to-day usage 2072 install to 2128.

Thats what I was saying as well SHS, that the older drivers even though they said there is ddraw it didnt work because I tried playing dvd movies and it couldnt.

 

But now with the new drivers everything works, and it passes all the tests in dxdiag. with the older drivers it never passed the direct draw test for me. NOw I got agp working ddraw working and d3d working.

 

I still am lost with ur first post when u said "Sorry it not DDraw it Direct3D that why DVD did work before." what is not ddraw? and DVD did NOT work for me before, maybe u had better luck.

 

All I know is I got everything working and I am happy as a camel in water.

 

 

one more thing with the OLD drivers I was using it said d3d works and so does ddraw BUT ddraw did not work in actuality.

You said

> Im watching a dvd using ddraw

Win you should have said Direct3D & not the DirectDraw

DDraw = DirectDraw "2D Only"

D3D = Direct3D "Game, DVD so on down the line"
