I've got an NVidia GEForce2 on my ABIT Kt7a... It's caused me nothing but problems since I bought it.
I'm currently running Windows 2000 which plays a lot of games just fine. But recently Tony Hawk 3 came out -- it only uses Direct 3D. Now this would be okay with me, but the game doesn't run. I checked DXDiag and it reported this error:
"Direct3D test results: Failure at step 18 (CreateDevice): HRESULT = 0x887602eb (unknown error)"
Above that it says the usual:
"The file nv4_disp.dll is uncertified, which means that it has not been tested by Microsoft's Windows Hardware Quality Labs. You may be able to get a certified driver from the manufacturer of the hardware device."
Oh that's lovely. I've looked around but have found NO other alternative than the drivers that I've found on www.nvidia.com .. I'd install XP, but it constantly freezes on setup.
I'm to the point where it seems like my only way out is a new motheboard---and boy do I not want to do that.
Has anyone experienced these problems? Or have an alternative to the NVidia drivers?
Thanks for _any_ help.
