Hello,

I've got a Toshiba laptop and my screen is a Trident Video Accelerator 9525DVD 5.6033
I've just installed a game on my laptop and when I want to start this message comes up:

"Please enable Direct3D Acceleration. You can do this by starting dxdiag and enabling Direct3D Acceleration in the Display1/2 tab after installing DirectX 8.1b (or later) and the latest drivers for your graphics card."

I did this and when I checked the Accelerator it said that it's not available and that I have to check the latest drivers of the hardware. But I've got no idea where to get this and if it's still available, because the laptop is not that new.

Thanx already for your help!
