are you running a Geforce2 GTS? I thought the demo was only for that card.

OP
actually I think you are right
 
It does have it listed for the geforce 2 GPU
 
I did have all the other geforce 1 demos but most of those wouldnt run, giving an error message about a missing dll
 
thanks

This demo doesn't work under Win2K even w/ a GeForce 2 GTS. I only work under Win9x. I tested it w/ my dual boot.

An nvidia tech demo not working with win2k(!)
 
I still refuse to go back to 98 and I dont have the free space to dual boot.

A friend of mine can run it under Win2K, but he has a Asus Geforce 2 GTS. It doesn't work with my Geforce256 DDR. I think it's because they use Per-Pixel-Shading in that demo and the Geforce256 is not supposed to be able to do that (actually it is just too slow as far as I heard).

My system specs:
PIII 600E @ 800 , 160mb PC100 3-3-3, Creative GeForce DDR, SBLive (never had any problems with it, yet. Liveware 2K works very fine for me), 15 GB IBM, Gigabyte BX2000@133, WinTV primio, Pioneer DVD 10x, Iiyama VM 451 (1280x1024@100Hz .

It does work in W2k, have tried it with GF1_32MB and GTS_64MB... no problems what so ever.
 
BTW, there's a DLL in the installed folder needed deletion... but forgotten what it was, one of those run time libs.

After trying to uninstall the GeForce 5.32 drivers and reinstalling them, the demo works.
