Baldur's Gate II help needed

[John]

I posted this in the software forum, but got NO replies.

I just bought the game earlier, installed it, and patched it with the Nov 00 file. I have a Herc GF2 GTS Pro w/ the 6.50 drivers and Windows 2000 Pro. Under the BASIC tab I have the General, Graphics, Sound to Maximum PC 600MHz. Under the Graphics tab I have the 3d options area w/ the 3d animation box checked. If I select use 3d acceleration I cannot see the RBG test patern. However I can run 1600x1200 32bit though without the 3d acceleration box checked and I see the pattern. I have tried the 6.31, 6.50, 6.67 drivers.

I installed the game on my P3 500 machine running 98SE, GeForce 256 DDR w/ 6.31 Detonators and I can check the 3d acceleration box and everything looks beautiful.

Win 2K is not 'officially' supported and that's the only thing I can think of that's holding me back.

What version of DirectX do you have?

Balders Gate II can only be run in 800X600 or 640X480. How are you doing 1600X1200?

the 6.18 drivers are they only ones that run error free for me in win2k, maybe you should give 'em a try. search for nvidia drivers on google or something, and i think the link is 2nd from the bottom of the page.

I had DX 7.0 earlier, and I just now upgraded to DX 8.0. No change.

Those are the &quot;supported&quot; resolutions. You can run &quot;unsupported&quot; resolutions up to 1600x1200 in the config options.

** I fixed my problem by installing my GeForce 256 w/ the 6.67 Win 2K drivers, turned the PC off, inserted the Herc GTS Pro back in and reinstalled the 6.67's. Everything is peachy now. Thanks for the feedback guys.
