Hi all, I have recently built a 486 pc. it has a 1.5gb hard drive with dos 7.10, a dual floppy drive and cd drive. The motherboard is a p486 p3, and the problem is as follows. The video card I wish to use and works with most of my games is a Tseng Labs ET4000ax 1mb video card. This video card as I said runs MOST of my games beautifully. However, I have 2 so far that I have found not to work. My copy of Predator 2 does NOT work with the video card. However it DOES work with a 256k tvga9000b Trident Video card. This completely stumps me. When I go to load the game, I go through dos, bring up the dir, then type in pred, and black screen with the 1mb card. Nothing else happens. Under the trident, it works fine. The tseng will load up to the attract screen for terminator 2 judgement day, but will not load further. Any ideas on WHY? Someone please help? The tseng plays others flawlessly. The trident looks weird. Like it has lines on the video. By the way, The predator game is not a copy. I DO own the original set of 2 floppy discs and would be more than happy to post pics to prove this if asked, same goes for the t2 game.
