  1. wowzer..thems' some skills!! I can't even maintain a hover as a trainee yet.. :o/
  2. Thanks muchly for your input!! As predicted it was a simple fix (so far so good *touches his wood*), and seemed only to require a 'thorough' removal of the drivers (using the driver sweeper) & reinstallation. Hopefully I can get on with mastering the hover & asking other n00b questions like, where's the switch for the PIP monitor, how do I change viewpoints, is there a simpletons keymap..other than scanning through the options...
  3. minor progress.. If I goto custom and do a clean install of the GPU drivers, everything is smashing..bubbles, games, Nvidea spinning logo etc. If I restart, its back to square 1??
  4. cheers for the replys.. I've disabled the Intel Graphics & 'faffing' with DX now. Its seems everything is upto date (Jun 2010 redist'), but something has gone t*ts up somewheres, and it seems its all occured after the initial run of TOH :mad: the only other 'event' was an update to SP1..could that of caused any mischief.?
  5. Me too.. Only thing that seems to be out of date is the intel graphics, but the download centre was down. How would I go about re-installing TOH? Would it need d'loading again..if so it'll be the last game I buy via Steam. Awesome!! That 1st minute or so just about somes up my evening..lol
  6. cheers..I'll give that a go. Getting really dis-heartened now!! The whole PC is brand new as of 23rd Dec, and I've happily been playing rFactor, Dirt3 & DeusX until I discovered TOH whilst away over new yr. So, got back Mon' D'loaded TOH via Steam most of Tues', was too busy Weds' to play, got it to run for an hour or so last night & today..no chance. Cant even get my bubbles screensaver to run now, says it needs a newer card or one that's compatible with direct3D.
  7. I give up, cant get in at all now, after 2hrs of trying..!! Ive uninstalled..re-installed..installed ASUS drivers, Nvidea drivers, the old drivers from the disc that came with the card. back to rFactor it is then
  8. thanks for the reply.. Its 8.17.12.8566 the driver date is showing 20\10\2011 I updated the driver last night with a 01\2012 driver, I'll investigate the numbers. Just to add, when I first downloaded & ran the software last week (via steam) there was no issue! Its only a recent thing & I've not 'tinkered' with anything? *edit* the 01\2012 is the date the d'load was modified it seems as its showing 06\01\2012
  9. no ideas.?? tried pretty much everything now to no avail Its not fun when you have ,say an hour or 2 to fit a little gaming in and it takes half that to get it to run!! Ive updated the drivers, re-installed DX 'umpteen' times (from the TOH directory), ran dxdiag (cannot alter any values in there!), been to 'troubleshoot' the graphics adapter & the properties box is greyed out..cant think of much else to do.??
  10. Hi all.. Shame this is my 1st post, but being a newbie im sure its an easy fix. I have googled it & found reference to the same prob' on ArmA2, but cant seem to find the hardware acell' slider here. For the record I dont get the error all the time, I have managed to log a couple of hours in-game. My machine is a new build with a GTX560 Ti card if thats any help? Many thanks in advance, Nik..
