You are SMART!

The problem is that a LOT of old cards are not compatible with DirectX 8, and MS made it a bear to install it, learn it fails--and then go back!

Lastly, very hard to explain to people how to do this. They just barely can install the product itself.

Got a tech support cal yesterday for someone that bought it at Fry’s, about 10 minutes in I asked “what is your OS?” he said…”X”

Ah…I see the problem now.
