Geforce II MX400 64mb (TV Out)

[old.*ZhG*Neo]

I have just built myself (which much help) a new pc which has the following spec:

1.8gig amd processor
512meg sdram
40gig hd
geforce II mx400 64mb (TV Out) graphics card
MB is a PC266 M810 series


I play Counterstrike and Day of Defeat, but am unable to get the games to work on opengl - keeps saying that this mode is not supported - which is contrary to what the card's spec says.

I have tried downloading the nvidia detonator drivers (two sets) - when installed I lost my display - just thousands of pretty coloured vertical lines for the first set (ver 23.xxxx) and just a blank screen the second (these were the very latest ones).

Could someone suggest a way to overcome this please - in a way that a dumbo like me can understand???

Yes m8, throw it in the bin.

Lo Neo m8. Just a thought, have you uninstalled the old drivers before installing the new ones. It may be worth a go.

Otherwise you could check here for some (by some, I mean fekin thousands) FAQs on the GeForce cards.

Hope it helps m8y.

BTW, is it possible for someone to move this thread into the hardware section, it may get a better response.

You would actually be better off using 98 m8!!! Me is a pile of poo

New drivers from the MANUFACTURER will sort you out methinks


DETONATORS are OK for some cards. But some cards run better with drivers released from mt eh manufacturer. Not nessarily faster, but more stable, open GL support, MS approved etc.
