So I get this error when starting the Direct3D executable: "No Direct3d Card found. Running Software version", and then it starts the software renderer EXE. Is there some setting in dgVoodoo2 that might get the Direct3D exe to recognize dgVoodoo2?

I just copied the dll's and it worked for me, no such an error message.

How? I copied the DLLs from the 2.86.2 version (without any changes, default files) and doesn't work for me.

Leaving here an API tracing log, hope it helps to find the cause.
