Exclamation NVIDIA RIVA TNT2 Model 64/ Model 64 Pro Card Gaming Problems

Hey,

I recently bought a NVIDIA RIVA TNT2 Model 64/ Model 64 Pro Card of one of my friends. The card worked with no problems with his computer and the only reason he sold it to me was because he upgraded his card.

I installed the card into my computer and a driver was supplied with Windows 2000 (My OS). I then installed Medal of Honour: Allied Assault Demo. The game DID NOT work at all and i got an error message saying there was a problem with my OpenGL. I then went to the NVIDIA site and downloaded the latest driver for the card. I installed the driver and tried the game and it worked BUT the game has all multi coloured lines running through it and the menu writing is unreadable. This affected the gameplay as well. I thought it way be a problem with the game(as it was only a demo) and thought nothing of it.

Then today I had my copy of Return to Castle Wolfenstein returned to me. I installed the game. I ran the game and it to has the same problem.

Does anyone know what my problem is and how it might be fixed???

Thanks

P.S If its of any help I think it may be an OpenGL problem

"Open GL" is purely a driver issue...
I once had to go thru about 25 before I found the right one...

Try this one for your card http://members.driverguide.com/drive...driverid=18670
