folks...I am having problems running Warcraft 3 or any game that specifically asks for Direct X 8.1
I ran the DXDIAG test in the RUN command to run the DIrect X tests and everything works fine EXCEPT when it starts to run the Direct 3D tests in version 8 mode
then I get this error:
Direct3D test results: Failure at step 5 (GetDeviceCaps): HRESULT = 0x8876086a (3D not available)
whats goin on???....I got a brand new GeForce 4200 Gainward card and I installed The latest Detonator 2980 drivers!
How can I fix this??...Im running Win XP PRO
What should be my next course of action...please help. Im confused here
I try to reinstall Direct X 8.1 from the WARCRAFT CD and it says you are running an up to date or a newer version and it wont reinstall!!
I think there are some corrupt files in the current Direct X 8.1b version that I'm running so how can I simply just remove all and reinstall or just do an overwrite reinstall of Direct X 8.1??
thanks!
