(* = have observed the demo render something sometimes before crashing):
Here is a list of GL demos that run fine: If I immediately re-run the utility and launch the same demo, it will fail immediately without rendering any frames. Most GL 2.1 demos fail, causing the GPU Caps Viewer application to crash, but some of the 2.1 demos actually begin to run for a short while before crashing. Games that have never worked since I bought them after my system problems (all through Steam): Games that don't run, but used to a few months ago:
The application leaves my desktop color washed out, probably with the settings that would have been used to render the Quake environment. With Quake III, the game attempts to change the video mode when first launching, before any title or cinematic is displayed, but I get a Windows message that the application stopped working, and that Windows attempts to find a solution for the problem (which it never does find). ini for the Steam version, but that's not what I'm trying to solve here. ini from my working version to cobble up a working. I suspect it is trying to render in OpenGL, but Steam didn't install a safe mode shortcut for it, so I can't run the program to change the video mode. It shows up in the list of processes for a few seconds, then goes away, with no indication of why it failed. That is, I can monitor it through the task manager. When I try to run the Steam version, it does nothing. My standalone version is configured to render using Direct3D. One is the standalone version, and the other is a version installed through Steam. I then noticed that other things that used to run would no longer run, such as Quake, Quake III Arena, and others. I tried system restore, but even the oldest restore point still exhibited the same behavior. I tried re-installing my video driver, and reverting to an older video driver version as well, but that didn't work. I tried other N64 emulators, and they all failed to run. Sometime in late December, 2010, I noticed that my N64 emulator stopped running.
