I have latest nvidia drivers and the hw.log is this: Tue Sep 28 17:02:11 2004 Loaded Archive: 'Homeworld2.big' UTIL -- filepath failure, path doesn't exists 'C:\Archivos de programa\Sierra\Homeworld2\data\locale\english' Loaded Archive: 'english.big' Loaded Archive: 'WARLORDSV0.30.Big' Uing ..profiles\ for profiles folder Cannot overwrite function PickRandomMusicTrackRule GAME -- Using player profile Canseco Changing from a 32 bit colour depth in win9x (4.10 build 67766446), A Using NVIDIA Corporation's 1.5.1 GeForce FX 5600XT/PCI/SSE/3DNOW! renderer (Suspected driver is nvopengl.dll 4.14.10.6176) Loaded Archive: 'englishSpeech.big' Loaded Archive: 'Music.big' SOUND -- created destination [ fdaudio ], handle [ 4 ] with [ 48 ] channels created SOUND -- created destination [ fda streamer ], handle [ 5 ] with [ 8 ] channels created Build name: The Dust Wars - AutoBuild3569 - Ordered by smmatte Built by : mrbuild Data path : C:\Archivos de programa\Sierra\Homeworld2\data Could not initialize all fragment programs.
