Title: New Voodoo3 2000 =blue screen
Post by: PropNut on April 09, 2000, 01:42:00 AM
I just loaded Aces High on my sons comp that has a new Voodoo 3 2000 vid card . everything works good on 16 bit but when I switch to 32 bit I get a light blue screen with traces of the map showing through. Can this card do the 32bit selection? anyone running this with no prob?  My TNT2 ultra in my comp works great at 32bit but not sure about this voodoo.  system = 466 Celeron/128mb ram/Voodoo3 2000/etc. etc   Thanks for any help  PropNut

PropNut, I just ran into this same problem today.  (same video card - Voodoo3 2000 PCI).

How did you fix it?  I can't see the clipboard in AH, and, therefore, cannot change my setting back to 16Bit in the game.

Your assistance would be appreciated.

Got to ur Game directory using the Explorer.

In the Directory "SETTINGS" you find a file called "video.cfg". Open it with the editor.

Replace the line "32,ColorDebth" with "16,ColorDebth", than save and start the game new.
