Need for speed Underground

[amp_man]

I think that it's running on your GF4, not the V2. As nightbird already stated, this game has no glide support, nor opengl, just direct3d.

Hi everyone, this is my first post. I´m from Argentina.
Well, I have a PIII 800EB MHz, with 512Mb Ram, and ....(and here comes the star) a voodoo 4500 agp 32Mb. All this running over a Epox mother board 3spa3L. Al this is been controlled by WinXP SP2.

Any time I try to run Need for Speed Underground it happended to do :

A). Although I`ve tried from the originally drivers to the
  Amigarling 3.1SR I ONLY GET THE ALL SYSTEM RESTARTED.
  Only with SSFA beta release I could see and error label.
  It seems to be something wrong with the "3dfxvs.dll" file.
  I also tried 3DAnalyze with no results.

B). Only with the drivers got on microsoft I could see this:

But...to tell you the true....I thougth you migth have tried this already? I´ll has it mailed to you rigth away.

Don´t you think a possible solution for my problem? Perhaps a patch or something like that. See you.

Its a driver problem, I have looked at this but havn't managed to fix this under XP although strangely enough it seems to work better under W2K with intermittent reboots rather than everytime, this is with a test driver though.

SFFT

Need for Speed Underground should work under XP with the next SFFT alpha release. It seems to work in DX7 Mode with the current driver the SFFT Alpha 19.

i can´t get it to work...

* in dx8 mode, i get "blue screen" (with a 3dfxvs.dll error) after the loading logo screen
* in dx7 mode, it doesn't start/launch at all (the desktop/windows explorer stays...)

winXPsp2, nfsuDEMO, v4500, alpha19

[SuperFurryFurryThing]

I have seen it fail to start occasionaly but it usually starts a second time. I have fixed the BSOD under DX8 mode in the next driver. At least that is was happens on my XP test machine with the Alpha 19, it usually runs fine under W2k.

Hi guys,
This is my first post and I´m from Portugal. My english is very poor, so please forgive me my mistakes
What drivers I need to run Need For Speed Underground win XP with a Voodoo 5500?
Any sugestions?
I already tryed SFFT alpha 22. The game runs but blocks right away and returns to windows. Only appears the loading screen

[SuperFurryFurryThing]

Try running the game again, I find that it loads under XP the second time if it fails the first.

execute set3title.exe (somewhere in the ZIP file), then Reboot the PC (maybe it can help......)

Or try to set your Voodoo5 to single chip mode...
