Well It finally happened, my perfect PC (NOT) With the most stable version of Windows (NOT) has a problem. I cant run any D3D applications like Test Drive 5, Motocross, FS2002, NHL2002, u guys get the picture. I just get this error: A 3D Graphics card is needed to play ~watever~. I tried updating my drivers, trying tweaking my card, tried UNtweaking it, try raising and lowering the IRQ i tried everything and nothing, the thing is i can run windows with the all the perdy colors and stuff, but i cant run 3D apps cuz they dont recognize my card anymore. Can someone pleeze help cuz if i lose my 3D gaming ill have to go outside with the normal ppl!!!!!!!!!!!:eek:

P.S. I took a screenie of wut it says about my Graphics card, it seems 2 be fine altho in the part i have highlighted i dont remember it saying that, maybe thats wut wrong, or maybe im just stupid:p
 
if you could post a screenie like the one you did of the error message and your system specs I am sure someone will help you out :D

cheers...

I was playing games normally 2 nights ago and then yesterday morning for no reason i try to run FS2002 and it says that its gonna run in safe mode cuz no 3D hardware could be found!
 
try reinstalling directx 8.1. that fixed a friend of mine's problems.

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
