Video card problem?
I just got a fairly simple looking "Family Feud" game for my computer, but I can't get it to run. It's requirements include several items that I know I have, plus "DirectX 9.0c compatible 3D video accelerator card with 64 MB RAM".
I don't know much about the whole video card thing. I bought a Dell E310 within the last year. It has a Pentium 4 3.0 GHz w/HT technology. The only thing I can find about video is under "Display Adapters" and it lists "Intel 82915G/GV/910GL Express Chipset Family".
What does all this mean, and is this the reason I can't get the game to run?
Directx 9.0c is not supported by all video cards, mostly only newer ones with Shader Model 3.0 in them. Although many new cards do have shader Model 3.0 (which is required to run Microsoft's new OS, Windows Vista), some of them are not DirectX 9.0c capable, but only DirectX 9.0. If this is the case with your video card, then it might be the reason you cannot run this game. In about four years or so, newer games will only be able to be run by graphics cards that are capable of running DirectX 10, so many people will have to upgrade their video cards.
Best thing you can do is update all your drivers from Microsoft's site and hope it works, but if your card does not support directx 9.0c, you might be out of luck. Hope all goes well though.
