As the topic says, I'm still getting the out of video memory error after the opening movie. I've tried the 1.01 patch, all of the readme advice, lower resolution on both desktop and display, Anti Alias off, 16 bit color depth,Direct 8.0/8.0a soundfix and pretty much all of the numerous other fixes and advice topics on this board.
But I still can't play Max Payne!!?

So here is my system, hopefully someone here can help me.Please!!!!!!!!!!!!
P3 800, ABIT BE6 II Mobo, SBlive! (yes I disabled that too!!) 3com 56K modem, 420+Meg RAM, DirectX 8( Ran DXDiag, no errors), Voodoo 5500( reinstalled twice.

If there is anything else you need just ask. And ANY ideas are welcome.

Thanks & I hope this appeal works! images/icons/tongue.gif

Just to doublecheck: have you set the colour depth to 16-bit for the game AND for the desktop? I had the same problem with an older Voodoo, until I dropped desktop to 16-bit colour, also.
