2. GAMES COMPATIBILITY ISSUE
ID's GLQuake and Raven's GLHexen II
-----------------------------------
Some versions of GLQuake and GLHexen II may show textures as white
blocks of color on the Graphics Blaster Exxtreme. To remedy this,
try the following.
(a) on GLQuake
glquake.exe -lm_4
(b) on GLHexen II
glh2.exe -lm_4
GLQuake and GLHexen II comes with an OPENGL32.DLL file that is not
meant for the Graphics Blaster Exxtreme. Rename or delete this file
in the game directory to run GLQuake or GLHexen II on the Graphics
Blaster Exxtreme.
3. KNOWN PROBLEMS
a) If you encounter problem of black screen after soft reboot (Ctl-
Alt-Del), try placing the Graphics Blaster Exxtreme into another
PCI slot.
b) The display driver causes system lockup in the checked build of
Windows NT 4.0 during startup. The problem does not happen in
the free build of Windows NT 4.0.
c) Blank Screen for Full Screen DOS
With Graphics Blaster Exxtreme(AGP), Switching into full Screen
DOS mode will cause no display on monitor. The remedy to this
problem is to install the Service Pack3 ( or later) for Microsoft
Windows NT4.0. Users are advised to contact Microsoft on the
avalability of this Service Pack.
