Not sure if they will work on anything other than the X800 series though (I
have a 9600 Pro so will sure try!)
Downloading the quicktime first though to have a look.

It refuses to run on my 9700 Pro, it needs an X800 :-(

The MPEG runs on my 9700 Pro using Quicktime 6.5. Maybe you need to upgrade
your Qt installation.

I hope your just kidding. The mpeg and quicktime should work on any system,
they are just video files. Its the exe(130mb) file that should only work on
the x800 cards. |

Bill the poster is referring to the .exe demo file, not the video files that

Ok, I wouldn't expect it to run on a card that didn't support
Pixel Shaders ver 2b. It is supposed to be a technology
demonstrator, no? I thought the OP just wanted to see what it
looked like and didn't have QT or other mpeg viewer installed.
No doubt a hack will be along sometime in the future where Ruby is
*** and sprouts wings instead of a paracommander. :)

What is the point of buying a card or making a demo that only proves that
the latest card is NOT backwards compatible with older stuff?
If I can't run the demo on the old hardware, how can I compare performance
to the new hardware?
Sounds like ATI doesn't want you to know that the 9800 can do the job just
as well as the new cards.
....and I'm *SICK* of waiting for HalfLife2! |

So all ATI demos should be backwards compatible with the first ATI 3D
card? Who needs new features, new cards should just increase fill
rate. Nicely thought out argument.

I didn't say ALL the old hardware... How about just the generation that the
new stuff is trying to replace? |

So how do they ever introduce new features?

Naw, they should just run *really* poorly to show everyone what the Next-Gen
offers. That's good marketing.
