i used to run 3dmark 2001 now i cant

first i had a gainward geforce2 ti 500
everything worked perfect

then i installed Nvidia drivers and i got a lower 3d mark score
Sow i uninstalled them and put back the originall drivers from the cd. Then Everquest upgrades the game and i try to play but it says no 3d device found?

so i fireup UT and think why dont it work in EQ?

i install direct x 8.1 and EQ still wont work same error .
I try 3dmark, and no 3d card found. But ut an rtcws work???

so i try dxdiag and i get this error when testing direct 3d

Direct3D test results: Failure at step 5 (GetDeviceCaps): HRESULT = 0x8876086a (3D not available)

havent heard from Gainward yet.
I have the latest drivers and latest Direct x
and i have reinstalled them a few times removing the drivers any way i could think of.

any ideas?

thx

download detanator destroyer from www.guru3d.com and wipe off the detanator drivers......then install the newest nvidia drivers...

Funny gave you good advise, also Take the video card out of the AGP slot and then reseat it...
