Right click the desktop, select properties, then select the settings tab, then "advanced".

Select the advance 3D tab, and then the 3d tab.

Thats how it is on mine, and I'm running the 4.12 on my X850

Run Dxdiag and double check to see if 3D is enabled and if it spots any errors there.

it says

direct draw acceleration not available

direct 3d acceleration not available

agp texture acceleration not available

under notes

this system is using the generic video driver. please install the video driver provided by the manufacture.

direct draw test results. all test were successful

Direct 3d functionality not available. you should verify that the driver is a final version from the hardware manufacturer.

is this as simple as reinstalling my video card, or is it going to be easyer to replace the dam thing?

ok found the problem. the only thing i can think of is it was a bad install.

what i did was uninstalled my Video card and cleared out all the old drivers and reinstalled my video card. went to the control panel and changed my refresh rate from default to 60 Hz and everything seems to be working fine.

thanks for all the help you gents have offered.
