jdulmage 0 Posted June 22, 2000 yes, it's me, it's jdulmage, back again... anyways, in Windows 2000 when I try to run Soldier of Fortune, it just boots out of the game right away and says something like "GLimp_SwapBuffers()" or something stupid. I have Detenator 2 drivers installed and everything. What's going on?? Thanks Share this post Link to post
Jester 0 Posted June 24, 2000 At least your system stays up. My system goes to a blue screen memory dump because NV4_disp caused some kind of fatal error. Share this post Link to post
Shadow18 0 Posted June 24, 2000 To run Soldier of Fortune, I do believe you need to run it as a Power User, because it will not run under any other account for some odd reason Share this post Link to post
peterro 0 Posted June 25, 2000 This is a OpenGL problem. Follow this instruction, and it should work! It did for me. Windows 2000 & Detonator 2 OpenGL fix [Comments] by Thomas McGuire @ 16:53 Those of you out there who are experiencing crashes in Opengl games such as Soldier of Fortune (e.g. GLimp_EndFrame() - SwapBuffers() failed!) after installing the Detonator 2 drivers for Windows 2000 will need to fix it using this procedure. 1. Click, Start, Run. 2. Type in regedit & hit Enter. 3. Go to [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\OpenGLDrivers]. Delete the RIVATNT subkey. 4. Go to [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\OpenGLDrivers] & make a New String Value entitled RIVATNT & give it a value of nvoglnt. Thanks to the nVidia newsgroup (unknown_error in particular) for mentioning the basic fix _Update_ - Step 4 has changed! UT works in OpenGL Also, if u update the game (v1.04, i think) you don't have to run it as a power user, u can run it as an administrator as well. Next time, use the "search" button, this is all standing here already! ------------------ AMD Athlon 750MHz ASUS K7V ASUS V6800 PURE 128MB 133RAM 20,5 GB IBM HD Share this post Link to post

I had the same with the 5.22 and up drivers. I installed the 5.17 drivers and the problem has gone. I had to really remove the 5.22 drivers (set system to default MS driver, reboot, remove NVidia 5.22 driver, reboot, install Nvidia 5.17 driver). Just up[censored] the current driver with a single reboot didn't work. Share this post Link to post
