Mortified Penguin Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 I'll give it a shot. I was patient through the whole authentication process but this weird problem is beginning to annoy. I've got a Radeon 2600 HD card on my laptop and the demo ran fast and silky smooth so why on earth am I having trouble now. Thanks for the info Miles.

SI Staff Miles Jacobson Posted November 14, 2008 SI Staff Share Posted November 14, 2008 I'll give it a shot.I was patient through the whole authentication process but this weird problem is beginning to annoy. I've got a Radeon 2600 HD card on my laptop and the demo ran fast and silky smooth so why on earth am I having trouble now. Thanks for the info Miles. I actually deleted my post, as the advise two posts up was better... Just in case lots of others come and see this thread, this is the advice from Steve Cox, our QA manager, which is based on the presumption that you have the full game, and the patch. Hi To fix the failed to set up graphics system issue you will need to download this Microsoft Direct X SDK: Link to the SDK: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en Cheers.
