hey just wondering if anyone can help me.
I got world of warcraft and a nvidia tnt m64 with "32meg" of vram. at first world of warcraft gave this message when i tried to run it "your 3d accelerator card is not supported by world of warcraft. please install a 3d accelerator card with dual-TMU support." i looked around for a bit for a solution to this problem and came across a fourum thread that had a solution to the exact problem by adding this to the shortcut directory "-opengl" i cud get the game to load. so i loaded attempted to log in and the game started patching. once this was finished i opened the game again... i got the same exact message as i did before i added the opengl command. does anyone know how i can get open gl to work again

I thought it was funny to offend other people's beliefs in my sig.

you should seriously upgrade, i think if you got that card then you should really get a new computer as i bet most newer cards (even the 5500fx) will hate you.

AHHH!!! Its another nvidia tnt2 riva model 64 user!? Or something like that. Thats the card I've had for a very long time. gets 30 fps rendering an un-textured cube...lol. But is yours the riva tnt2 m64?

Edit - And oh yes,I never got opengl working with my tnt2 card. At least not in windows xp. It worked in windows me for a little bit,but then it stopped working one day,so I couldn't use deled and it made me sad.
