Hi all,

Please help. I try to run the simplest of programs and get "Runtime Error 1507 - Display using 32 bit is not supported by available hardware at line 0".

System is Athlon 500 with 3dfx voodoo3 video card.

Thanks for help!

I've almost got it!!! I figured out that I need to change the exe settings to a different display mode... then I can check for better modes programatically.

If you have not, please go back to the post you made with the incorrect title. I think I threw people off by posting there to give you a pat on the back for making a better post name, so your answer is in there from another poster.

The voodoo cards never supported a 32 bit mode did they?

You should either use the fullscreen exclusive 16 bit mode, or use a windowed mode - that should get you running Ok.
