Hi a friend of mine showed me how to get Goldeneye on to my computer but could not get it to work. Every time i load up Project64 a notice comes up saying:


"Graphics Error:
Direct3D failed to initialize
Error code: 8876086A
D3DERR_NOTAVAILABLE"

So I click "OK", then:

"Error:
The default or selected video plugin is missing or invalid.

Check that you have at least one compatible plugin file in your
folder."


I have tried to run the plugins but they are .dll files and my computer does not recognise them and I dont know how to get my game to work.
Could anybody help me? It would be much appreciated! :bow:

Click to expand...

Sounds like the plugin isn't right for your graphics card. Try another plugin. (And they're not supposed to be run by themselves.)

I have downloaded other plugins but they do not work because it requires a specific plugin, any ideas? Thank you for the help!
