Fixed. Took two reinstalls. Dunno what happened.
I just reformmated by computer, installed latest nvidia drivers and sound card drivers. When a mission loads, thief renders in 800x600x8 for a second and then exits to desktop. Video settings don't let me go higher than this, or let me enable fogging (it doesn't even say fogging: yes | no, just "fogging:"), nor does it show "Primary Display Driver" under the hardware selection.
(To dromed users, the textures that load for those few brief seconds look like the textures before you set .cfg to edit_screen_depth 16)
I've searched the forums and found nothing so far. Before the reformat, the game ran fine on full settings. I've removed the semi-colon before safe_texture_manager, just in case, too. Fog table emulation is on. Here's my relevant setup:
A8N-E mobo
amd64 3800
geforce 7800 gt
x-fi
edit:
After restart, game does let me select primary display driver, otherwise, nothing new.
