and now i give you a guess. my video card is incompatible? please tell me there is a solution short of buying new equiptment/v-card. i dont have the dough for these things.
thank you for taking the time to look and in advance for anything you may come up with.
oh,yes. i have been all over the forums at last chaos and their tech postings (you will find my postings under the handle X-ring even tho i have yet to play the game even once) and you will find i have also posted there, and any responses i have gotten to date, if you like(most of the actual data is here) and i HAVE tried the less looney suggestions that i came across.
ok i gotta log off i need sleep i gotta work tomorrow.oi
attached is a SS of my DX diag page showing up to date etc and my sys specs window (a portion deliberately blocked out with a notepad window)
THANKYOU FOR ANY HELP!!!
