I have a nVIDIA RIVA TNT2 MODEL 64

'software rendering' thing. There's no other
option and there should be one right? I installed
all the drivers. So like i said i dont know much,
but any help would be kewl!

thanx



In short, you need to run your games under what's called an "accelerated
API". Like Direct 3D or OpenGL.

If you see a game that runs under "DirectX 8" or "DX9", then it runs
under accelerated Direct3D.

Download an install the latest reference drivers from NVIDIA
(www.nvidia.com), go through the card selector and download the drivers
appropriate for your TNT2.

Even though your card is old and limited, you can still run under what's
called "Direct3D HAL" mode and OpenGL should just run without a problem.

Games like Unreal Tournament and such often give you the choice of
selecting D3d or OpenGL at startup, or configuring it through the menus.
If you have a problem with a specific game, please post back to the group.
