Installing DirectX/3D: AGP Texture Acceleration Are Not Available?
HI currently have from what I can see a very common and well known problem with Direct3D. My computer has DirectX 9.0c ( 4.09.0000.0904 ) installed. I assume that Direct3D comes along with DirectX and should be installed seperately. However when I click on the Diplay tab Direct Draw Acceleration, Direct 3D acceleration, and AGP texture acceleration are not available and the option buttons are grayed out.
My graphics card is Ati Radeon 9250. I have downloaded the Ati Catalyst Control center and the drivers for the graphics card, however the problem still wasn't solved . Could someone please help me out with this matter, since it's really bugging me, any help would be much appriciated. I have also included print screens that I think may be good to look at and see certain information. If any other information is needed or you have questions that please do not hesistate as I really need to get this issue sorted.

Installing Directx 10 Onto XP 32-bit?
Hello all, I was wondering is there a way we can install directx 10 onto XP 32-bit. directx 10 is one of the main reason why Vista 64-bit is the best way to go for gamers, but I'm trying to save $150 and installing specfic drivers needed to run Vista properly on my PC. Looking at my specs, should I go head and invest in Vista Home Prem 64-bit or settle for XP 64-bit and hope for the best when SP3 comes out?

Directx 10 Supported By Xp / Install Directx 9?
Just formatted my desktop and installed a fresh copy of XP Pro on it. I did a search on google and found that some people said XP does not support directX 10, but then when you go to the directX website to download it, Windows XP IS under the list of "Supported Operating Systems". So is 10 supported by XP, or do I have to download 9.0c?

Reduce Sound Acceleration
I would like to create a script of some sort that can be run by a regular user and that can reduce the sound acceleration like in the Sound tab of dxdiag. An older game my kids run needs lower acceleration to function properly. A second script to reset it would be helpful too. I don't want to give my kids admin priv or have to set it myself before and after each gaming session.

Deleted Texture Files Again On Desktop After Restart Computer
By mistake I unzipped some Microsoft Flight Simulator texture files to my desktop [from a safe site I have been using for years] instead of the intended FS04 folder. I deleted the files and cleared the recycle bin, the next time I turned on the system all the files were on the desktop again. I restored the system back a few days before the files were unzipped, no luck, the files reappear every time my computer is turned on.

VIA AGP Filter Driver Disk - Download
I am trying to install XP Home Edition on an ECS KT600-A motherboard with an 80 gig hard drive and I get a message on the desktop that the VIA CPU to AGP 2.0/AGP 3.0 Controller is missing. The message also states that the driver I need to correct this problem is on the VIA AGP Filter Driver Disk. I have tried to find this disk to download it but I have not been able to find it. Does anyone know where I can download this disk? If so, what is the webaddress where I can download it?

Agp.sys Hang In Safe Mode
I'm running XP home SP3, and it boots up fine in normal mode, but when I tried booting it in Safe mode (to try and fix a different problem) it stopped on the driver list at agp.sys. I have an ATI Radeon HD3850 (AGP slot) which wasn't the original GPU with the PC when I bought it.I've looked around all over the place to find a fix, and I've tried the main solution which is to disable agp.sys via the recovery console. However, the graphics go really basic in normal mode, and when booted in safe mode, it hangs on mup.sys instead. I've also run a full error scan on start-up and it didn't fix it.I've read people suggesting updating GPU bios, which I've heard can be risky.

Rage 128 Pro Ultra GL AGP Driver
First of all, yes I know my card is ancient. I was trying to install a new driver from ATI, so I (or atleast I think I did) uninstalled my previous driver and then restarted, and then tried to install the driver I got from ATi's website. I get an error message when I try to install it which says that the driver doesn't fit the adapter. Now I'm stuck without a driver. I'm using Windows XP, if that matters, which it probably does.

Nv4_disp.dll And DirectX
I think I am losing what little sanity that I have left. I am having a couple of problems and they seem to be linked. Let's see if I can explain this so that it makes sense. I downloaded directx 9.oc last week don't know where it went because when I try to run "dxdiag" it says that I have vers 8.1 then everything crashes and all that I can do is push the reset button. Then when everything comes back I get an error message about the nv4_disp.dll

DirectX Or Graphic Driver
When I try to play Tony Hawk's Pro Skaker 4 on my laptop and I get the following error:The file SiS630v.dll is not digitally signed, which means that it has not been tested by Microsoft's Windows Hardware Quality Labs (WHQL). You may be able to get a WHQL logo'd driver from the hardware manufacturer. The file sis7018.sys is not digitally signed, which means that it has not been tested by Microsoft's Windows Hardware Quality Labs (WHQL). You may be able to get a WHQL logo'd driver from the hardware manufacturer.I think the main problem is that my drivers (audio and graphic) are not verified or whatever with Windows.How can I do this?How can I can each of their logo'd driver from SiS?

Program Need DirectX 8.1: Installed But Not Found?
Tried installing a program but it needed DirectX8.1.. Went to MS site and found that DX8.1 is already installed in XP. DOwnloaded and reinstalled anyway. Program still doesn't find it. Think it may be a registry problem but am hesitant to fool around with it. Anyone know how to make XP default to DX8.1? (There are other DirectX's in registry, i.e DX3, DX6 etc. Think it may be defaulting to one of these.

Not Recognizing DirectX - Screen Flickers
I had to reinstall my OS (Windows XP) to correct a problem I was having. I did so, and afterwards reinstalled all my drivers and such to get everything back in working order. Everything is fine now, but for some reason Windows isn't recognizing DirectX. Whenever I try to run a game (for example, World of Warcraft), the screen flickers a few times (as if it's changing the resolution), then the game shuts down. In WoW's case, I get an error message stating "World of Warcraft was unable to start up 3D acceleration. Please make sure DirectX 9.0c is installed and your video drivers are up-to-date." (again, no game is working, but WoW is the only game that's actually giving me a specific error message). My video card is an ATI Radeon X1650 and I uninstalled the drivers for that and reinstalled them, which did not correct the problem. I'm certain I DO have DirectX 9.0c, as I installed it just yesterday and running dxdiag confirms that I do indeed have that version of DirectX installed.

Directx Error: Tells Me I Am Using Generic Drivers?
I recently got a virus on it and reinstalled xp. Now all the games I used to play on it are coming up with directx errors. When I looked at the errors in the diagnostic tool it tells me I am using generic drivers. So I popped my driver disk in and installed them all but it still gave me the same error. So I reinstalled directx 9.0 with no fix. I understand that this thing is a beast and I should just stop using it but, it is the only pc I want to clutter up with old games and stuff. And I know it is compatible because I used to play these games before.
