I just swapped out machines here at work and lost the video card that ran the Aquarium like a pro. Now it chunks a frame at a time and the bubbles look like a stream of white, unmoving lines. Occasionally the screen will flicker to black as well.

According to a few web sites I visited, this card can support 3D graphics but when I run dxdiag it says there is no 3D Acceleration.

Does this mean I am just SOL?

System:
OS: Win XP Pro 5.1 build 2600
Processor: Pentium III 448MHz
Mem: 128MB RAM
DirectX Version: DirectX 8.1

Display:
Name: Viper V330
Manufacture: Diamond Multimedia
Chip Type: NV3
DAC Type: Integrated RAMDAC
Approx. Total Mem: 4.0 MB
Current Display Mode: 1024 x 768 (16 bit)
Monitor: SONY GDM-500PS

I get 0.87 fps

Oops. I meant to post this in the hardware thread. I must have clicked the wrong button. Sorry!
