Larian Studios Forums Beyond Divinity (English) Technical Problems Crashes when trying to test Direct3d

Everytime I try to test direct3d it goes to a 640x480 black screen and just sits there. Direct 3d will not work at all on any resolution. Direct Draw will start, but it usually crashes after a few minutes of playing the game. I have the newest drivers i can get my hands on and direct3d 9.0b. When i run dxDiag everything passes. I'll get a copy of the diag up later, as I'm currently on a different computer.
Specs:
pentium 4 3.2ghz
radeon mobility 9600 pro
512 Ram
Windows XP Pro

The test in the configuration program can have a problem with some Radeon cards/drivers, but the game itself works fine. Check the 'skip test' box, then hit the 'test' and 'apply and close' buttons.
Have you installed the latest patch?

BTW, there are separate forums for Divine Divinity and Beyond Divinity.


Welcome to the forum. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wave.gif" alt="" />

I can tell you a Diamond Stealth S60 Radeon card does NOT work with Beyond Divinity -- I took mine back to the store and got an Nvida Gforce 4 and now I'm cooking...
