Windows NT 4.0 and the Graphics Blaster Riva TNT AGP

[tfoley95]

This weekend I wiped my drive of Win98 and put NT 4.0 on it. It works great except in Monster Truck Madness I can't "engage" the 3D accelerator. It worked great in Win98, but now it says that I don't have a 3D accelerator installed. I have the latest drivers and such.

I think that Monster Truck Madness requires DirectX 5, and NT only comes with DirectX 3.

NT doesn't come with any DirectX unless you put SP 3 or higher on it. MTM comes with DirectX 3.0 I believe. I tried DirectX 6 and it still doesn't work.

I don't think it will ever work, unless you go back to a Windows 95/98 setup, or Microsoft releases a service pack with DirectX 5 support (ha, like that'll ever happen!).
