Oooops.....Newest Ref Drivers dated 9/27/2000 are
"NVIDIA Display Driver for Windows 9x version 4.12.01.0631,9/20/2000" Although the zip says : 631 which I assumed mean ver 6.31? |

On the W&W help pages it is clearly written "Wizards & Warriors™ does not support video or 3D card reference drivers".
So I installed the newest drivers of my card manufacturer and not the Nvidia reference drivers. However I will try the reference drivers now if they are different to mine. To Ultima IX: I use the German version of this game. It was already patched to version 1.06F on the installation CD so I didn't need other updates. It worked fine with my TNT2U card. |

With the Nvidia reference driver packet v6.31 everything works fine now.
Thankz to all that helped me. I did learn one thing: Always do exactly the opposite thing of what is written in the help files. @Junker on the Nvidia.com site the newest driver package is v6.31, I found no 6.34. Try any driver that is made for a TNT2 card, if its a reference driver or not, if its from your card manufacturer or from another company, probably you will find one that works. |

Ulpentulp:
You aren't getting any lockups when dragging your cursor over items? What are your graphic settings set to? And what is your desktop display settings? |

You know what is really sad?
The help file at Activision says for video lockups, it specifically addresses Diamonds v770 series: it says please use Diamonds Drivers instead of Ref Drivers to take care of the problem. Well, Diamond has not updated their drivers since Feb of this year for TNT2...can you believe that? And of course, I have a v770 ultra.... But hey, I am willing to try diamonds drivers if it gets me past the video lockups |

Hmm
I am also experiencing random lockups with the reference driver now. I will switch back to the old drivers, better some predictable bugs in the shops than having random lockups while playing. I don't know what do do now, TNT2 is the most common chipset around and especially this chipset should not work with W&W ?? I am switching to 640x480 and restart the game now when everytime I go shopping. This can't be true. Ok, any other hints how to solve the TNT2 probs ? |

I have a TNT2 card as well, running in 800x600...but fortunately I am not experiencing any problems with the game.
I'm currently running the latest Detonator Drivers. hope this helps. |

(grin)
ZARTAC: HOW is that supposed to HELP? HMM? You see, the majority of us with TNT2 cards are having problems then you come along and say "Hey look at me! I'm not having problems! Hope That Helps!" (paraphrased) That really struck me as funny |
