Hi,
I recently started to use a new old computer. About the same specs of my laptop but the fact that not everything is integrated on the motherboard as chipsets is u huge difference.
Well the problem is that it doesn't seems to be fully compatible with directX 9c. I changed a few settings to play sc4 so that works fine, although i have got some weird clouds tough.
But when i try to play halflife 2 lostcoast which i ironically downloaded free from steam due a promotion from nvidia it says that my card is not directx9 compatible is. when i look in the video settings of the game it says that my software level is directx 9 but my hardware level is directx 8. I updated the car driver and directx but nothing changed.
Does anybody knows if this is fixable or is it just a fact that this card is incompatible (Nvidia claims it fully compatible with directx 9)
If anyone has some advice, please shoot
Greetings

I'm not an expert on your particular case, but I'd say your only "solution" is to download the latest 8.x directx and be satisfied to play with that.. whatever the consequences relative to a particular game.. (SC4 is WAAAY older than EITHER standard.. :) ) OR buy a new video card.. there are MANY available that work FINE for 25-75 dollars US that ARE both decent performers AND directx9 compatible..
