When''s the last time you updated your video driver?

The driver is installed by win2000 os.

That means directx doesn''t support all display adapters?

Not all video drivers support DirectX 9''s HAL requirements. And there can be basically 2 reasons. It can be because the hardware itself can not support it. Or it can be because the driver is a generic driver with minimal functionality that does not expose the hardware fully. Many of the drivers supplied with Windows 2000 fall into this class. Install the latest video drivers from the video card''s manufacturer (or in the case of integrated video, especially laptops, from the computer''s manufacturer).
