for some reason when i would go to play game my monitor would go blank....first i suspected refresh rate prob...no such luck...i changed resolutions..and color depth...still didnt work. I have updated directx..its directx 9.0b and im using a nvidia geforce fx 5200 pci vid card...should be no probs with that. My comp specs pass all the tests. I would go into dxdiag and run the direct3d test and it would pass for 7, and 8, but not 9. directdraw is fine though. I dont have a clue as to why it would pass for the 2 but not the third and monitor would black out. Im sry if this probelm has been talked about many times on the forum..i did a search but didnt see anything....i just wanna fix it and play my damn game : )

ohh yea i almost forgot....for whoever is nice enough to help solve the prob heres a few bits of info i left out.....in my nvidia properties the d3d settings r :

 

"best image quality"

 

Maximum system memory for PCI mode textues is set at "31 MB"

 

and enable fog table emulation is checked

 

all of that is the default settings to my knowledge

 

Also i recently had a worm in my comp which i got rid of which posed as system32.exe...i dont know if it effected system32 directory or if thats even an issue..was just curious cause i know system32 has driver info in it.
