hi i have a little problem

Post by Fury. »

I have installed a new video card with pixel shader 2.0 (I had only 1.2 and games like Spores were having much graphics troubles and visive artifacts).

Now I have 2 graphics cards, Newest games run smoothly, but now if i try to run the Shaders demo of irrlicht seems I have no pixel shader support on both directx and opengl drivers. I have already updated my pc to latest drivers. I tried to remove the oldest video card but simpli windows run only on 16 color mode and no game can start.

any suggestion (i have added again the old video card to let computer work at least for videogames)?

Hi Fury,

I'm by no means an expert, but Windows may be having problems with having 2 graphics cards installed.

I see you tried removing the older card, but did you also purge the video driver? If I were you, I would try removing the old card again, completely removing (i.e. purging) both video card drivers, and then installing the new video card driver.

Whatever video card drivers you have installed, search on the web for instructions on how to properly remove those drivers.

Good luck.

Jarrett
