    Does anyone know where I could get info on programming 3d graphics cards like geforce mx etc in asm. Seems everywhere I look its all in c and librarys. I really need to know. Any suggestions? Thanx:confused:

    Why would you want to do that? I'm guessing you mean programming 3d graphics in asm, rather than actually programming the card itself (unless you're talking about vertex programs). If that's the case, you'll probably still need the libraries in order to get 3d acceleration out of them, unless you plan to write drivers in asm too! In which case I wouldn't even know where to start...

    Yeah I do mean to program 3d graphics in asm but I am looking for information to be able to write drivers. I need to find out asm information some I can figure out how the gpu on the card works and so I can use it to run my own software. I can't base it on opengl and that because they are higher level languages and I'm working in low level ( have to!:( ) for a project I'm doing. I know nvidia have toolkits but there just for the new cg language and opengl not low level stuff. See you at Deathcon Jazz :) .
