Nicholas Carpenter 1124393 Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 I know that this is in the list of known problems, but as I am extremely computer illitterate , how exactly, in step-by-step, do I turn the hardware acceleration down in the video driver settings? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ernesto Alvarez 818262 Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 didnt say OS, it may be different in Vista, in XP right click on your desktop, click properties, click settings tab, then click advanced, click the troubleshoot tab, lower the slider. how much you lower depends on your system, on my laptop to get VRC to work right i need to go to atleast the second notch on the left Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicholas Carpenter 1124393 Posted December 22, 2009 Author Share Posted December 22, 2009 This is Vista, I made it into the hardware acceleration, but I cannot click the change settings because it is grayed out. I tried closing all my windows but it still didn't work. The message was "Your current display driver does not allow changes to be made to hardware acceleration settings."

Tomas Hansson Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 You may need to be running as Administrator. If that doesn't work, check for updates to your video card. Find out what your video card is, go to the manufacturer's website and check for updates. Tomas Hansson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke Kolin Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 What video card do you have? Does it even have hardware acceleration? Cheers! Luke ... I spawn hundreds of children a day.
