Hello guys...
I have a problem with my video card and/or drivers.
I had this same problem a few weeks ago but my computer was a big mess crashing all the time, so I upgraded from Windows ME to Windows XP. Now my computer runs great otherwise but here's my problem...
I installed Age of Empires 2 (AOE) and Rise of Nations (RON) on XP fresh and initially AOE worked perfectly but RON claimed my video card drivers needed to be updated. So I went online and got this whole driver and utility package, latest version 2003. My video card is an SiS integrated chipset 630/730. Now after the big upgrade, neither AOE or RON works!!
AOE says "Could not initialize graphics system. Make sure video card and drivers are compatable with DirectDraw."
RON says "Graphics services failed to initialize. Please make sure video card and drivers are correctly installed and compatible with Rise of Nations."
Haven't noticed any other problems... Can anyone help me plleaase??? I dont get it. Thanks.
