I been havin trouble with this game of mine and I've been under the impression it was the game. Getting ideas now that those problems are nothing more than tell tale signs of a bad video card. I have a Radeon 9000 bought new this August from Walmart. It keeps telling me that my direct X is not installed properly and some drivers are missing. Are these well known problems with Radeon 9000's? I got the drivers from Ati's homepage and reinstalled them. I redownloaded direct x from microsoft. (ticked me off, I got a 56K connection. Takes a long time) Did all that and it's still shouting at me that things are wrong. Anybody out there got some helpful advice because beyond downloading and reinstalling, I'm lost. :loser:

what game or all. some of those drivers from ATI do not come with openGL support. you will need the factory disk. ATI 9000 32 or 64 meg? Win98?
