This game looks awesome... but, of course... I can't play it!!! Grrr!

I doubt anyone here can help, but hey, it's worth a shot...

Running Win2000 with the latest DirectX and a Kyro II 128MB card (ugh). Now, I know the card's good enough to run the game... but when I run it, I get the error:

D3DERR_INVALIDCALL
CODE 2156 FACILITY 2166 SEVERITY 1

I checked dxdiag and it claims all's well. Tried upgrading the drivers, DOWNgrading the drivers, reference (PowerVR) drivers, manufacturer's (Hercules) drivers, messed with the driver's Direct3D settings... no luck. Can't really think of anything else to try.

Anyone have some ideas? Other than getting a new vid card, of course... trying to squeeze a few more months out of this one.

Thanks for reading!

this will get more people looking at it if it were in the software forum.

Check the readme for the game. It says what vid cards a supported.. and what ones have problems.. and also one that is totally not supported.. but your's is not listed at all.. some I'm guessing.. it was never tested, and probally doesn't work at all either.

im not much help, but the game is quite fun!
worth trying

Thanks guys... yeah, my vid card is about as obscure as... well... something really really obscure. Not very surprised to see developers have stopped bothering with it.

Waiting for HL2 to come out before I upgrade... it better be soon! LOL
