i just bought this card today, right after i was searching for endless hours on a 56k modem downloading tons of drivers and things for "chipsets" and direct x updates to play command and conquer: genrals. my card supports 32x graphix accellaration, my original card that is, but even after going through all the support sites and downloading half the ineternet generals still didnt work. so, i decided to just get a resonably priced new card, with a lil more kick. i went out of my way to make sure it was compatible with amd athalons, and that it would also work with Generals (its a picky son of a bitch). well, to put it in short, more hours and money have been wasted, as i've gone through tons of help sites, re-installs, downloads, drivers, and everything under the sun to make this work (again), and the only progress i have made, is that now the new video card works when not playing games, and instead of generals crashing upon open, it closes and says that my direct x isnt up to date or my card isnt powerful enough. the card is 2 times more than wat i need to play the game, and i installed direct x 9 (a few times). the thing that is wierd, is it says direct x isnt installed no matter how many times i uninstall and reinstall it, and i think there might be sum issues with the chipset still or an adapter pretaining to the new video card (the radeon). sumone please tell me they know wats going on.
