Whenever I try to start up TNM, it acts as though it's the first run of Deus Ex (which it is definitvely NOT) and asks me to choose a graphics driver, without showing any choices to make. If I try to simply skip this, I get an error. Log is as follows.

I'm running Window 7 Build 7100, if that helps.
UPDATE: I tried deleting the default .ini's for TNM, and now it just loads DX when I try to play it. Restoring old .ini's has no effect on this situation.
This probably sounds like an INCREDIBLY naive and stupid question, but... How exactly is TNM supposed to install? Is it in a seperate folder with it's own Maps, System, and assorted other folders, or does it merge with the DX folders?
Reason I'm asking is that mine was in a seperate folder, and I tried merging the folders to see if it would work. And it sorta did. It opens, the Off Topic logo floats up, etc. but there's no interface. I'm beginning to think it was a buggy install on Window's behalf more than anything else.
UPDATE: To test my "buggy Windows" theory, I'm trying a clean install onto XP.
My theory was right. You can't install TNM properly on Windows 7 (well, my early build, anyway.) I went and installed it on my XP comp, and it worked fine. Thanks for your time anyway, and sorry to bother you with it in the first place. After all, if I'd just done this earlier, it'd've worked immediately. I look forwards to giving you guys some feedback once I've played through.

Anyway, I hope you enjoy the mod and that you'll find it to have been worth the trouble.
How'd you get it to work? Did you just install it normally? Because I load the game and the menu doesn't even load, it just shows some black screen with a random white triangle floating everywhere (kinda like what it does on XP if you alt+tab).
When I was younger I knew a motherfucker like you!
