problems with video on kawaks

[James]

Putting in a Video card should solve that problem.

ah, i wish I could afford a video card!

 

I just tried FBA and it doesn't have video for me either! I've tried all the blitter settings, etc.

 

I'll see if I can get new drivers...

Seriously...I think it's your video card. Up till about a month ago, I'd been using 7 year old ibm (amd k6 300mhz 64mb ram) and it had an ATI Rage II 2mbs graphics card!! It ran kawaks and other emu's perfectly.

 

If possible you should get a new comp....but you probably can't afford that. Shoot for a low end graphics card. Save up little by little and you'll get it in no time.

I just threw away a ati rage video card. I found it in the trash, picked it up, looked at the rage logo, and instantly threw to the ground.

I think I had the same card on my old machine, but I think it had 1MB of memory... Needless to say, the only thing I could ever get in 3D was the spinnig cube in the Direct3D test.

 

Coupling it with a Voodoo 1 helped a bunch though.

I was going to send this person one of my old AGP cards that should solve the problem as long as the MB has a agp slot.

My machine couldn't handle Voodoo 2 SLI, otherwise it would have owned.
