    I run Windows XP sp2 on a Dell Dimension 8200 with Nvidia GeForce3 TI 200 64mg graphics card. I also have Easy Media Creator 7 with the lastest update installed.
    However, there are certain features of Roxio (create a slideshow for one) when I try to use them tell me that my display does not fully support Directx 9 3D features. When doing a search on Roxio site it tells you to get the lastest driver for your display (which I have done) and if you still get this message and I quote "If you have already downloaded and installed the latest driver revision available, and still get that message, you will need to have your video card manufacturer produce a fully compatible DirectX 9 driver or purchase a new video card." :eek:
    I can't imagine going to Nvidia and telling them they need to produce me a new driver for my graphics card so that I can use a particular program.
    I ran the diagnostics from microsoft to troubleshoot my 3D acceleration and had no problems. The 3D display screens that were used in the test were clear and showed 3D graphics.
    So what's the fix here? Anyone have any ideas?

    I have the same version. I did not get the 3D problem but it said I MUST set my screen resolution to 1024x768. He** I can not even READ things at the size. I am lucky to see things CORRECTLY at 800x600 The only thing I could use from it was the Drag-N-Drop.

    Also. I tried to upgrade my AVG anti-Virus. I got a very clear message that ROXIO would cause problems. Maybe that is why my AVG AV was not working properly.

    So Roxio left the building. AVG is fine now.

    They might actually appreciate knowing that other popular software has features available but unusable due to;
    At least inquire with NVidia about the issue. They might just issue an update. ;)
