Well, the thing is that any game that uses direc3d doen´t work, they hang up a few seconds after i run them. But every game using the Opengl or 3dfx engine works just fine. Tired of trying drivers and stuff, ive decided to format and reinstall windows, directx, etc. After doing this, ive tried with the regular drivers that come with the card and some "oldie" games that just had to work with those drivers, Blood 2 (direct3d) and Soldier of Fortune (openGl). Blood 2 hangs up in the intro scenes but Soldier of Fortune works ok as always. Tried other games, and the same thing happens, direct3d games doesnt work while 3dfx and opengl games do. I ve run out of ideas ¿maybe its an electronic problem in the card?

Thanks for your help.

Hi!

Yes, when i run the test of dXdiag, both opengl and direct3d are working fine, i see the cube rotating and it doesnt hangs up. But the direct 3d games are still hanging up.
