CannibalCorpse 0 Posted June 12, 2000 Dear All, I have a Hercules/Guillemot Prophet 3D DDR-DVI GeForce 256 DDR video card running on nVIDIA’s official Detonator 2 (v 5.22) drivers. My OS is Windows 2000 Professional on a PIII-450MHz CPU and 256MB of PC-100 SDRAM memory. The issues at hand is the fact that non of the following games work under this system (when I click on their icons, the hard drive reads a bit of info but nothing happens, I even don’t get any far from the desktop at all) Heretic II SiN SiN official mission pack: Wages of SiN Even the official nVIDIA technology demos (the bike, bee) does not work stating that it requires DirectX 6.0 to operate. The only working games so far are Quake III Arena and DAIKATANA. I even tried the previous version of drivers (3.78 official DDR Hercules drivers) with no luck. Would you please help me? Thanks in advance! ------------------ Best regards, Cannibal Corpse Share this post Link to post
Bursar 0 Posted June 12, 2000 I'll install Sin on my PC at home tonight and see what happens. My spec is a bit different to yours, but it may help highlight the problem a bit more. (Have you tried installing all of the patches for Sin?) Share this post Link to post
CannibalCorpse 0 Posted June 12, 2000 Thanks for the message. Yes I have installed the lastes patch. According to MS Technical Support (DirectX Guru) it is impossible to get away form DrirectX 7a (even using the DirectX Unintaller program) since Win2K will rebuild it on the fly (from a Protected Folder Cache). I just realized that during SiN installation it asked me if I want to install DirectX MEDIA, and I said NO. MS tech support rep (an avid game player himself) suggested installing DirectX MEDIA. I will uninstall and re-install SiN and choose install DirectX Media to see what happens. ------------------ Best regards, Cannibal Corpse Share this post Link to post
