I need help with DirectX

[ArAgOrN]

I'm using Win2K and I have the lates drivers from nivida. I'm also

using DirectX 8. When I try to use Direct3D it crashed my system

and it reboots. It does it when I try to test Direct3D too, so

directX can't tell me whats wrong. OpenGL works fine, but not

everygame uses OpenGL. Anyone Have ideas?

If you have a via chipset board make sure you have the via agp driver installed.

Can you give us some system specifications? And what OS do you use? Do you use DirectX 8.0a, or DirectX 8.1? What build of 8.1 do you use (If you use it)?

If you read my original post this time you get the anwsers you wanted ;)

Yea, it looks like PhLuBB didn't really read your original post, but it would help if you could give us the lowdown on your hardware specs.

I'm afraid there are no hardware specifications. And all you say is DirectX8. Not 8.1 of 8.0. I do see that you use Win2K however.
