hiya, i tried my app on a voodoo 3 video card under a windows xp environment.., it doesnt'' want to load! also, is there a better way to get user''s system info rather than using a multitude of api calls like opening the register to get info, calling pD3DDevice->GetDeviceCaps(...), using the memory functions of Win32Api etc.., many thanks,

What version of DX are you using? DX8 won''t work with a Voodoo3 unless you get the 3rd party driver. And even then your specific Voodoo3 might not have an DX8 compatible driver for it.

Did u make sure that u are not doing anything illegal , like using large textures ? Voodoo cards , have many limitations
