What SAM board? If it's a flex, then 3D should work (though I'm not sure about the SE variant) - if it's a mini ITX then you have bad luck, 'cos only the motherboard M9 is supported with 3D acceleration AFAIK...maybe m3x can help here or ask ACube, they're very helpful in this regards.
But does not work "Warp3D" and "MiniGL" either. A demo is running, open a blank window and the system will freeze.
I suggest making a full backup of your OS4/Workbench volume (just drag & drop the volume's icon to somewhere else that is large enough to hold it - preferably a USB memory stick, although a DVD+RW might work), and then doing a complete format + reinstall using an AmigaOS4.1 Update 1 CD. (If you don't have this CD, then you need to register your OS4 with Hyperion & then you can download an Update 1 ISO which you can burn to a CD-R using AmiDVD).
P.S. The Mini-ITX Sam440 only has 1 PCI slot, where-as the Flex Sam440 has 3 PCI slots. That is an easy way to tell them apart.
P.P.S. Is this a new Sam440, or a second-hand one? (I'm guessing the latter.)
Which leads me to my question, can my sam440ep run a ATI Radeon 9200SE PCI graphics card then? If the the answer is yes I would definitely by card for my sam if thats the case.
To me it seems that people are using PCI Radeon 92xx cards on their SAm440ep miniITX amd that they work well, right?
Anyone had any success using two monitors simultamneously? (one on the motherboard and other on the PCI card)
Anyone used Voodoo card to run the second display?

@Valiant Can you confirm that your "Sam440ep" is a Mini-ITX version? The "ep" bit used by Acube for BOTH the Flex & Mini-ITX versions... (So people using "ep" to indicate the Mini-ITX version are wrong to do so.)
Some people claim ACube say that it is impossible to use the 3D capabilities of a Radeon92x0 card plugged into a Sam440 Mini-ITX. If you can confirm it works, then that would help a lot of people.

I can confirm that my "Sam440ep" is indeed a Sam440ep and not a Sam440ep-Flex. Also I've run Celestia and the Earth demo on it.

I started the development of the AmiDARK Engine on a Sam440EP 666Mhz and 3D worked perfectly.

All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us.
I have SAM440EP motherboards! Not the Flex version! One PCI slot!
It turned out that this motherboard is a prototype. Perhaps for this reason that does not work properly with the R9200SE.
I would like to ask the person who is SAM440EP motherboard and graphics card to use the system board. Please send the following e-mail me the DEVS:MONITORS/ folder content.
Please send your ENV:PICASSO96/ folder content and ENV:SYS/screenmode.prefs file.
