When I try to start a game I get an error message “Could not load Direct3D” or I get could not find a suitable graphics card and something "Direct3D and then eventually my computer will stop responding.

I tried installing the latest version of Direct X, but I still get the same error.

Works with other programs such as playing movies.

Guys, I recently purchased a second ATI 6970 graphics card for my system to be run in CrossFire configuration. I expected graphics performance in games to double but FPS rate is almost the same as that with a single card. I have measured the FPS rate in "Assassin's Creed" and "Dead Space". What could be the issue? I have attached screenshot from GPU-Z:

Hello.

My friend ready to upgrade his video cards and stuck as to what should do.
He already have one 4850 512mb, and  thinking wanted to crossfire it with a 1GB of the same brand and model.

And now he doesn't know which to choose. The 4870 will be a bit more, which He is willing to pay, but only if it yields a much better performance gain over crossfiring the two 4850's.

Can someone give me some advice?

Another thing is psu.

I know it can handle the 2 4850's, but if it can't handle the 4870, there's no point in purchasing it.

I've been thinking about buying a new graphics card lately and I'm still a little lost. Basically:

I found GTX 460 OC 1280Mb 256Bit DDR5 NVidia PCI manufactured by Colorful for $250

Another shop which sells HD 6950 Cayman 2Gb 256Bit DDR5 Ati Radeon PCI manufactured by Digital Alliance for $300 

or HD 6950 1Gb 256Bit Mini DP DDR5 HDMI Dual DVI (HD-695X-ZDFC) Ati Radeon PCI Exp.manufactured by XFX For $225

Would it be a good idea to go for the cheaper one? Do brand names really matter?

Any tips?

Which is quite irrelevant, but does a better graphic card result in faster rendering for design?

Hi!

I have this config: Intel Core i5 2500K 3.30GHz box, Motherboard: Asus P8P67-M rev. B3, Video Card: Gigabyte GeForce GTX 560 Ti OC 1 GB DDR5 256-bit, HDD: Samsung 500 GB SATA-II 7200 rpm 16 MB SpinPoint F3

I installed Windows 7 64 bits, and every time I try to play a game of last generation the PC freeze a few seconds, minimize the game to the taskbar and I receive this error: "Display Driver NVIDIA Windows Kernel Mode Driver, Version 280.26  stopped responding and has successfully recovered." (see file attached)

Hi,

I will be upgrading my video card, I just want to know which is a better video card with regards to resolution; is it an AGP or

PCI-E based video card.

Which one can render better graphics; the one that can run a computer game smoothly?

Hi,

I need to compare the exact specifications of certain video cards showing the detailed information of each video card wherein I can compare both video cards side by side in just one website.

Can anyone suggest a good website wherein I can do this easily?

When I tried to install the latest nVidia driver for windows build 7264 x64. I got an error in the extraction. and then I wasn’t able to install it after several attempts. so did any one encountered the same error as well ? what should I do to install it ? after the installation failed… the system asked me to try installing it as recommended. and though. I couldn’t install it. So what do you say with that ?? Error:" 7-zip; Data error."

i have a NVIDIA 6800 ultra and I don't know what the problem is.

I can't update my drivers. when I launch battlefield 2 it gives me the NVIDIA drivers option. when i click on the option it goes into the NVIDIA display setup.

I keep getting this error message:

The NVIDIA setup program could locate any drivers that are compatible with your current hardware. Setup will now exit.
