I don't believe that board has PCIe

Taking that processor was my first tip off. It has standard PCI slots.

    That's not the standard processor for that board, it's quite slower than the standard, and it does have a PCI Express slot

      well, I got a new card in it, installed the drivers for it, and now when I try to do anything graphical, the computer restarts. I have DX 9.0b, but I was wondering if I could go back to dx 8, because I think it is a DX problem. I tried to disable the acceleration for the card, but that didn't fix it either.


      Any help would be wonderful!

        By the way, I'm a total retard! the board is an ASRock K7vT2, not a z, a 2. LOL

        I don't believe it is possible to downgrade Direct X. I believe you have to do a reinstall. Sorry.  ;)

             Viper1991......   Isn't this the same machine that has all the download issues not to mention the activation problems ......  I would be getting a legit copy of XP /SP2 ...... install it ...... do the activation thing ....download the available updates and I'll bet the majority of your issues will disappear.

              I plan on installing XP pro corporate this weekend (legitamitly), and of course, the DX 9.0c didn't do anything. I'll tell you if that works.

              Thanks
