Ive recently been away from my PC for a month or two and I wanted to update my video driver, so I did and every thing seemed to go smooth.
Then I started the game Guild Wars and before it could start I had a message saying "could not initialize 3D output" and gives me a link to the DirectX 9.0c DL.
Does anyone know what can fix this problem? I used system restore and it brought back the oroginal drivers, but I want to use the new frivers and play my game. PLZ any help would be apriciated
My Specs are....
