nvida panel show DX3

[Aachen]

New games don't have problem with this issue but when I want to start some "old" game it could bring up the "Incorrect Version of DirectX".

For example Empire Earth I

Anyone knows how to fix this issue?

Thanks .

I really think you are in the wrong forum....

Here is my advice =

Goto http://www.guru3d.com and download either their driver cleaner or the free version of the driverheaven driver cleaner (Both are found on their site) Use it to remove the all of the nVidia VIDEO not mobo drivers and then after a clean reboot with not drivers for your card there run the setup for the latest nVidia drivers for your video card...

If you are reading this before I get back I have gone to get links for you I will be back...

Guru3D Driver sweeper = http://www.guru3d.com/index.php?page=driversweeper DONOT choose nvidia chipset drivers! Just nVidia video drivers.

Latest OFFICIAL drivers for your card = http://www.nvidia.com/object/winxp_2k_93.71_2.html

Oh and before someone else tells you please don't post full sized images. Use a temp server like http://www.imagevenue.com to host your screenshots and they will provide you with a link for a click-able thumbnail...

This is not a problem with the drivers but a problem with Windows 2003 since SP1. In fact, the nVidia panel is a good way to see if the problem is still there or has been corrected.
