I just read in another post that the answer to video problems is your GeForce2 MX. I have one, and I'm experiencing video problems.

What's up the the MX ? Why does it do that?

go to nvidia.com and get the detnator drivers, there the absolute best, but ofcourse the best thing to do would be to get an ATI card, hehe..

I had problems with my Graphics card at first with the MOHAA demo and this file took care of the problem

I have the DetonatorXP drivers.
Running Win2K Pro, 256 MB SDRAM, Athlon 900Mhz.
I run RtCW great, QuakeIII great, HL @ 1280x960 at 60 fps. I don't know why the hell this game isn't running as well as I'd like.
Great game though.

not had any problems with my MX, SP demo slows down a bit with smoke & when lots of enemies in the town (but thats my poor old P111 450), apart from that both demos run fine.

2015 is not able to handle the Quake III Engine close as good as Id, buttom line.

I figured out the solution for the problem running the game (or demo) in XP with a
nivida chipset.
First:
Update to the latest Detonator drivers for your NVidia card for windows XP/2000.
( http://www.nvidia.com/view.asp?PAGE=windows2000)
Version 23.11
Second:
After the install of the videodriver search
for these 2 files:
opengl32.dll (670Kb, dated 7 sept 2001) and
opengl32.lib (325Kb, dated 16 july 1996).
The can be found in the windowssystem32
directory.

Third:
Copy these 2 files into the game dir
x:Program FilesEA GAMESMOHAA
(x is your drive letter where the game is installed!)
overwriting the old files that were there.
(the old opengl32.dll is 717Kb)

Last step:
Remove the '3dfxgl.dll' from your game dir.
that should fix the problem. I believe the
engine tries to load the 3dfx drivers
first. I think when they did the RTCW code
they did not do a validity check to make
sure there was not another opengl driver
before erroring out.

After these steps MOHAA will work on XP too!!

Have fun people!!

Frankie - your solution is a one-way ticket to crash city for individuals running XP with an nVIDIA card. The Detonator driver for XP are more than shoddy - they downright suck. It is accepted that random reboots - and massive system failure will occur when using 23.11. So the answer? - stick with 21.83, and download OpenGL and install it on your computer. It's what I had to do using a GeForce2 Mx/Mx 64mb vid-card. And now I'm aok.

EXCELSIOR

Not having any problems with the latest Nvidia drivers in XP... Works perfect with my Geforce 2 card!! Maybe it depends on
the card you have?
