But the thing is it happens on every game I try to use, which is definitely NOT normal behavior. I'm wondering why Glide hates a fresh reinstall. Here's a possible answer why (and I'm really serious, too) Microsoft's policy on why Windows can't run good forever

As I posted earlier, yes I do have the glide wrapper, or rather, the glide3x.dll, correct? Where's the best location for it to be installed?

No, the only old video card I have is an AGP GeForce 5700 LE, which would not work on this motherboard. Again, I've been able to use this card (the 9600GT) with Glide just fine last week.

try redownloading the emulator and the glide wrapper and running from a fresh directory.

and hopefully you're asking them for help, too.

if its a GFX Exception, then yeah. Jabo has made his plugin ignore those exceptions now (woot can finish the final boss battle on megaman now.)

The same directory as the project64.exe, since the packaged wrapper is only for glide64/

Yeah, I'll make an entirely new directory; chances are that'll resolve the issue. Just to verify, is Zeckensack's Wrapper the best one to get or is it Glitch 64?

Glide64's wrapper is the best for glide64
Zeckinsack is the best for actual glide games.

Glide64's wrapper stays in the pj64 folder, while Zeckinsacks installs to sysdir.

you responded to it, so it must have affected you to some degree. I try not to replay to such comment when there made about me.
