So the 8820 arrived and it's perfect. Finally :) A question: does the 8820 have an internal battery? I was reading the technical manual and didn't find anything. Did you ever found out if the 8820 has an internal battery or not? I'm going to get one soon and I'm also wondering if it has it. No, …

I tried out the latest beta and it's pretty spot on with everything. A few things that weren't right: Sound Blaster Pro 2 being detected as Pro AudioSpectrum under Sound, but as proper Sound Blaster Pro 2.0 under Sound Blaster Compatible. Don't know how fixable that is. (this is visible in the …

I remember having similar issues with my Mystique 220 (VBIOS 1.8, GPU 66 MHz, memory 99 MHz) with Chris's 3D at 640x480. Something to do with VESA supported modes as I remember. I ran it again just now to confirm, and what it does for me is black screen for a bit over a minute before the display …

That's all the objects on the menu constantly spinning, so yeah the passport is in there somewhere. It definitely isn't supposed to be doing that unless you're holding down the left/right button the whole time.

I guess I can get away with display.drv gone. When I tried that before, the system hard reset when launching the game. Now it's fine (???). Verite.vxd is still needed though. So really it's just verite.vxd and v10003d.uc. The game folder contains redline.dll and verite.dll.

Ok, so I was deleting those mentioned files one at a time to see which ones the game actually needs, and it turns out that most are unnecessary. It only needs display.drv, v10003d.uc, verite.vxd, and winspd3d.uc in the system folder and runs just fine. Edit: winspd3d.uc is actually not needed either …

Yeah F1 definitely wants files from the rredline folder in the system folder to run (without wrapper). I know that not all of them were put in the system folder from when I cleaned it out, like the .nms files. The missing files that are not included in my driver package are display.drv, v1000.dll, …

Uninstalled the Canopus drivers, removed remaining files from system folder (device was already removed from device manager from Canopus driver uninstall) and installed Canopus drivers only. Game refuses to launch with stock dlls in the game folder. Your new files do indeed not show the error popup …

System folder but yes. The linked files do the exact same thing as the others. Same error, game runs perfectly. I haven't had a chance to try to clean the drivers yet though.

The only located files are in the system folder, exactly where they should be, besides the ones in my desktop folders for reference drivers and the wrapper. The wrapper files do indeed work with those 3 files not present. Error popup still present. It is the Total3D. The game will not launch if the …

So I've got the RRedline version of F1 working. Required a bit of tinkering to get it to function. Apologies if this is already known but it's my first time with this. It's definitely not happy with the Canopus drivers (small black window appears for a split second and closes). So I removed the …

Mine is indeed on IRQ 10. PnP OS option in BIOS is set to Yes. IRQ 11 for me is taken up by my network card. Removing said card doesn't change anything though. There are a few tools you can use in DOS to check IRQs besides MSD. HWiNFO and NSSI can do it. (it's a bit more intuitive to find on HWiNFO …
