I'm a newbie 2 the 3dfx world. My apologies 4 my ignorance. I have a V5 5500 PCI card. I downloaded Amigamerlin 3.1 XP. I carefully ran through the steps and each time when installing tools i receive the following error message:"ERROR 1904,Module C:\Program Files\3Dfx Interactive\3Dfx Tools\Tools\AdvTweak.dll failed to register.HRESULT-2147418113. Contact your support personell." Color.dll,TVout.dll,Feature.dll, and LCD.dll,also failed to register. (same error message).I'm using a brand new clean install of winxp. I carefully uninstalled all drivers & tools using the steps outlined in "TROUBLESHOOTING-REGISTRY CLEANING" from VOODOOUSERS each time i tried installation. I have tried all troubleshooting workarounds i can find, with the same results every time. New clean XP install, so no previous video card drivers. MotherBoard is a GA-6VEML with onboard VIA chipset(VT8601T HOST/AGP/Controller,VT82C686B).Onboard VGA built-in Trident Blade 3D/PRO media in VT8601T, 1.2Ghz Cellron, 256RAM, 20G drive. I know card works, I was using it with Amigamerlin on previous XP sys.
 Also the win xp "Hardware(driver)Update" wizard and "Add New Hardware" wizard will not let me choose "Standard VGA Adapter" from list. *Install from a list or specific location.-
     *Don't search.I will choose Driver to install.-
then windows offers what windows deems "compatable hardware" and that's it, i don't get to choose.
 No drivers for VIA chipset are installed so in Device Manager-Display Adapters it says:"Trident Video Accelerater Blade 3D/PRO media" which is disabled. in Display Properties-Adapter tab, it lists "VGA SAVE", Monitor tab lists, "Default Monitor".
PLEASE HELP O'GREAT ONES, GRASSHOPPER WOULD BE MOST GRATEFULL!
