I have a little problem with PJ64 i think it has something to do with my 3D card

When i start up i get this msg:

Direct3D failed to initialize your HAL device make sure you have a properly configured 3D graphics card compatible with Direct3D 6.0

after that i get this:

Failed to initilize graphics


after that PJ64 just starts i cant start roms now cause its not initialized.

I have a
Pentium III
500 Mhz
128 Mb Ram
16Mb Voodoo 3

Windows XP with DirectX 8.01

Could someone please help me?

Glide only works in full screen.
Make sure it's a good rom.
And Glide doesn't support zelda MM very well. It's only Jabo's I'd suppose. Well, there's others too.

Try 1964 and Jabo's plugin. And check "Change blending mode if invalid for video card" in the graphics plugin options. That will get you most speed of it, since your cpu isn't that fast...
