3Dmark 2001 and ATI?
I get a 3dmark error message stating...
"3dmark2k1 needs dx 8.1 and proper drivers in order to run Install MS DX 8.1 and try again" bla bla bla Now I know I have everything setup right and 3dmark2003 works fine btw. This only happens AFTER the installation of DX 9. If I don't install DX9, 3dmark2k1 runs under DX8.1 as it should but of course I can't use 3dmark2k3 then... Understand? Thanks again...

It runs fine on 9700 pro & DX9, so I can't see why it wouldn't run on a 9800. |

"Just me" wrote in message ... How do I run 3dmark2k1 with 9800 and DX9? Thanks! I had it working once with a 9700 and dx9, but after uninstallation and reinstallation, I could never get to work again. The troubleshooter at futuremark's website says to uninstall and reinstall the latest version he http://makeashorterlink.com/?E13265815 |

I did uninstall and reinstall but that didn't help. One thing I noticed tho,
the AGP Texture Acceleration is NOT AVAILABLE when I run DirectX Diagnostic Tool (dxdiag). (but all games work fine, again) How do I "enable" this AGP texture acceletaion option, guys? I'm using drivers 3.4 here... "KCB" wrote in message news:GzGLa.54440$Fy6.15181@sccrnsc03... "Just me" wrote in message ... How do I run 3dmark2k1 with 9800 and DX9? Thanks!

Get build 330 which works with DX9. Still you'll only be measuring DX8
features - it doesn't use DX9 "Just me" wrote in message ... How do I run 3dmark2k1 with 9800 and DX9? Thanks! |

I understand your problem!!!
Sorry for jumping to any conclusion!!! and portraying my post as obnoxious but DX9 was my problem. Jealous for the sake of 100!!!! (9700 - 9800) good luck.... "Lithurge" wrote in message ...

I get it now! Install the patch revision 330 over a full install that is
also a revision 330 and it works. "NightSky 421" wrote in message ... "Just me" wrote in message ... How do I run 3dmark2k1 with 9800 and DX9? Thanks! There is a patch which allows you to run 3DMark2001 SE with DirectX 9 installed. Once I installed it, I was able to run the benchmark perfectly on my 9700 Pro. The same should happen for you with the 9800 Pro. |
