Okay... I have looked all around the web to try and find a way to fix this but it just aint happening.. What is up with 3DFX Tools and WinXP. I have tried the REPAIR part of 3DFX tools.. no go.. I have tried manually entering the .dll's into the registry.. still no go.. everything that has been suggested does NOT work.. what the hell.. ?!HAS ANYONE FOUND A WORKAROUND FOR THIS YET!? multiple uninstallations and reinstalls failed to work as well.. even Administrator account fails to register the .DLL's ... HELP
1) Don't post several times the same problem, useless (i closed the other topic)
2) What drivers are you using ?
Amigasport 3.0.. the drivers themselves seem to be working awesome.. games fly on this... its just 3DFX Tools that fail to register into the registry.. and this is a problem for me because my monitor is ****ty.. and I need some sort of gamma correction to make it brighter. Has anyone with this problem found a workaround?
Sorry for the other post..
i tried with WinXP SP2, and that problem... gone! :)
but, u should try again with the repair option, cause it's the only known solution...[B)]
Try to remove the driver and clean the registry (3dfx, glide...)
https://www.3dfxzone.it/dir/3dfx/common_files/index.htm
Driver Cleaner v. 2.7
Then install again the driver.
alright ill go ahead and try those two suggestions.. i have yet to upgrade to SP2 yet so maybe I will.. :)
The driver doesn't need a SP2.
I've had the same problem after uninstall Amigasport and re-install. You have to uninstall the diver, search in the registrery the key "3dfxvs" and the clean it;)After that, a proper install and ererything works fine:)
I THINK SP2 for XP removes the old XP stepping all over unregistered drivers thingy. it's been a number of years since I have had to rename the driver.cab file in XP..........
