Graphic Error: Direct 3D Failed to initializated your HAL device make sure you have properly configured 3D graphics card compatible with direct 3D.

My PC:
P3 1Ghz
Sound Blaster Live!Ware
256 RAM
Voodoo 3/3000 AGP

That's really odd. Especially with D3D6. Now, if you were using D3D8, then I can see why it won't work (no voodoo driver set out there currently supports DX8.1), but there may be a few reasons why the D3D6 isn't working.

Are you trying to use 32bit color with it? V3's do NOT have the ability to do 32bit rendering.

Do you have the latest V3 drivers? Those will definitely support D3D6.

Finally, you should try any Glide plugins for the emu. Glide plugin's are specifically designed to be run on Voodoo cards.

Oh yeah, I myself have a Voodoo3 2000 PCI, so I know what I'm talking about here, since I usually hit the same constraints with some D3D games.
