problems loading games

[Grimm]

Whenever I try to load a game it seems to start loading it, then shows the error:
Unexpected Error Encountered
File: Direct3d.cpp
Line: 92
Error Code: D3DERR_INVALIDCAL (0x8876086c)
Calling: Error in Lemmy's video.dl
After I click on about 10 of those errors it shows another one saying:
Error in input code
Access to the input device has been lost. It must be reaquired

Ive noticed practically every n64 emulator has a problem with Voodoo graphics cards, so it probably has something to do with that. Anyways I am using

AMD Athlong
1.20 ghz
256 mb ram
Voodoo 3 card
windows xp.
I just downloaded the latest drivers, so I dont know what the problem is. If anyone has an idea as to what it could be, I would be very grateful.

Erm thats Athlon, in case there are wise asses here that want to go "hmm athlong , never heard of that one, bwahahahahaha, man I am so funny." It just seems like there always is one.

As you have guessed, it's the Voodoo3 that is at fault. There was quiet a long thread about this error a while back, and I don't think there was any solution other than to keep pressing the enter button

On a side note though (you probably already know this, but just in case), you should really be using Glide64 with the Voodoo card. Not too sure, but I think Glide64 should also work with Nemu, so you can give it a try if you want.

As for the "Athlong" error, for future reference any errors such as that can just be edited out using the edit button.

Voodoo 3 with Windows XP

The Windows XP Voodoo 3 drivers are not very good
drivers, thus you may get much better results with
Windows 98 SE. Possibly using third party Voodoo 3
drivers for Windows XP will fix the problem.
