it weird this happened on nt4 server,but also occured on nt4 workstation,i,ve tryed the different driver sets for my voodoo banshee card,and still no luck,funny thing is that in the past i had no problems at all,except that the nt4 opengl screen savers would not work,now nothing though i can run unreal and ut okay?i,ve logged in as admin in vga mode, to do it as well,could my banshee card s hardware be at fault?

thanks for any advise
