Win2K and DirectX
Author
After running a few arbitrary DirectX demos from one of LaMonthe''s books, I saw that there were a few that immediately crashed or just failed to function altogether. From what I can remember, these demos worked fine on my Win9x machine, so I was just wondering what kind of incompatibilities regarding DirectX and Win2K might interfere with any future projects I might pursue, assuming that these potential quirks are the reason that these demos don''t work.

Personally, win2k and directx have worked fine for me. Make sure you have the newest directx files.
What book/sample is it? It could be something in the program that is non-win2k compliant...

Here are a few off of the T3D CD that weren''t working correctly:
Demo9_1, Demo9_3, Demo9_4, Demo12_3 (executed, but screwed up when returning to the desktop)
I think there were a few others, but those are the ones that I managed to find in the short time I have to write this post.

DirectX/Win2k haven''t given me any problems either... everything seems to be working fine. Must be another problem.

Change the color depth from D3DFMT_A8R8G8B8 to D3DFMT_X8R9G8B8 and recompile. That should fix it.
