    i am also having the same problem with it saying that it failed to find any directx 9 compatible graphics adapters. my computer says i have directx 9 installed, but after going into dxdiag, it says that the DDI is at 7. I tried downloading the latest driver for my video card, and it says I already have it. It also wont let me re-install directx 9.

    I have an ATI Mobility Radeon 9000 IGP card. Please help!
