no :D

lets just say it hates dx9 and up. nothing short of an os downgrade will fix it. unless of course you know how to uninstall directx. why :v: didnt use open gl is far beyond me.

Not many developers seem to like using OpenGL for some reason.

It's a known driver bug. I have heard about it before, but I doubt it will ever be fixed.

it worked fine in xp with a 7600gt so its not a dx or os bug

It's a bug with the 8800 drivers specifically.

theres a -voodoo command line but im sure that it just sets the games to run on a voodoo2 in d3d because my glide wrapper didnt kick in
