Maxie,
Is this the only 3D program you're having issues with? Perhaps your daughter has a (3D) game which works (or doesn't)?

Try this:
- Click on the "Start" button and choose "Run...".
- Type "dxdiag" (without the quotes) in the box that pops up and press Enter.
- Choose the "Monitor" tab and verify that both "DirectDraw acceleration" and "Direct3D acceleration" is activated.
- Click on the "Test DirectDraw" button and see if it checks out.
- Do the same with the "Test Direct3D" button.
- Under "Drivers" (still on the "Monitor" tab) check what version of the drivers you're using.
- Report back here and we'll sort things out and/or come up with new suggestions of things to do.

Prolific,
Any ideas on what's been installed. Is the MA2.0 CD a hybrid disc or something?

Thanks to Morgan, Tiny Snapshots is up and running again with "Tiny Järvafält" as the latest addition – Go have a look and tell me what you think.

"We knew the world would not be the same. A few people laughed, a few people cried, most people were silent.
I remembered the line from the Hindu scripture, the Bhagavad-Gita. Vishnu is trying to persuade the Prince that he should do his duty and to impress him takes on his multi-armed form and says,
'Now, I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds.'
I suppose we all thought that, one way or another.
