on win2k, tnt card. when i start softice, then hit ctrl + d... it seems it comes up, but i cannot see the black dialog?! what?!!! how can i fix this m8's?

I have a similar system and the same problem. I'll tell you if I manage to make it work.

I managed to make it work by removing my tnt2 drivers, but that 640x400, 16 color vga mode isn't really great.

Hi All,

Im using a Radeon card and i had the same problem.
It was solved by changing the color depth when sIce refuses to show up. Try it, might work. Nothing specific. Just change from anything to anything. In my case, i changed from 32-bit to 16-bit and it was solved.

Hi !

I've the same prob. Also w2k.
video card: Else Gladiac 511

I found it to be the refresh rate not color depth that hides the ice for my PC.

I have an Hercules 3D prophet with Win2K and a 19" thingy and regardless of which DS 'ntice.sys' version I try (currently 2.01 build 57) the only solution for me is to switch to 75hz then back up to 85hz. ............SI reappears

I tried all versions of Nvidia reference drivers and Hercules drivers, same shit

After the screensaver kicks in I have to re-do the above !

Hope it helps,.......... I thought ArthaXerxes was looking after this topic

mmmm ....had 5 mins lunch and searched numega. Found no refs to nvidia or geforce but got one similar problem for 'crap (j/k)' vga card :-

BUT still I remember that numega posted something about the vga frequency being a problem ....over 85hz ?

ArthaXerXes can add this to the faq if it's relevant ?

would it be a sin to ask for the ntice.sys from Driver Studio 2 to help fix some of our problems?

thanks to Anticode
