you didn't install your graphic card drivers. get it from the manufacturer's website.

Vid Drivers Downloaded And Installed From Compaq... Even Downloaded DirectX 9 (Gw Says You Need Atleast DirectX 8)
Restarted My Comp And Gw Is Still Coming Up With The Same Error

Any Other Ideas?
Thanks, Markus

i meant your GRAPHIC CARD manufacturer. i do hope you know what it is. if you don't, run dxdiag and tell us what it says in the display tab.

You may need to check device manager to find out what you have for a video card, I hope you do not need to open the case. You said you have a compaq computer, what model?
