I am also having problems with Diamond - they have said that they are about to release new drivers based on the nVidia Detonation drivers and hope this will fix the problem. Those guys don't seem to talk to one another, I told them I tried the Detonator drivers. Either that or they just don't believe what they read from customers. Even though Glenn had worked through this issue with them, I had to start from square 1. I know that the nVidia Detonation drivers do not fix the texture problem with a Diamond Viper 550 running under NT. I am about to check this under Windows 95. I have looked into contacting nVidia but they don't seem to have a support site - this is from their web page ... I suggest you reply to Diamond with this quote !!! I can do that, I have to send it from home where I have the previous correspondence. I have asked - and ask again - PLEASE Sun can you help ???? What I think we need is an idea as to which OpenGL calls are causing the problem. I do not know OpenGL so I am not able to write a test program. If Sun or an OpenGL expert could supply some test code, we might be able to give the TNT Graphics Adapter manufacturers a simple test program, then we might get a fix. How about the Glaze benchmark, it seems to test most OpenGL capabilities. I haven't tried to run it on my TNT since I only found NT versions on the web site and I'm running Win98 at home. Also - does anyone have nVidia RIVA TNT drivers pre build 0.36 for AGP Win 95 or NT ? It would be interesting to know which version introduced the problem. Not me, sorry.
