User Guide

If the driver is not certified and no version number is given, then you will probably
e xperience difficulties. It is recommended that you contact your component
manufacturer (for example your display card manufacturer or your hardwa r e
supplier) and obtain the latest DirectX™ 5.0 compatible drivers from them.
If there is a version number, but the driver is not certified, then this particular
driver was not installed with the current version of DirectX™( on your system but
should be DirectX™ 5.0 compatible. You may want to try installing the version
from Broken Sword II™ or contacting your hardware manufacturer or your
hardware supplier for the latest compatible drivers.
If you notice the message “No Hardware Support”, then this driver is not
supported by DirectX™ 5.0 and therefore in most cases the program will not work
at all. It is possible that the program may run, but it will use a lot of processor
power. Again it is recommended that you contact your hardware manufacturer or
supplier, and obtain the latest DirectX™ 5.0 compatible drivers.
Note: In most cases, you will generally find that DirectX™ 5.0 errors will
occur with your Display card or Sound Card, so please contact your hardware
supplier or manufacturer and ensure that you have the latest compatible DirectX™
5.0 drivers for these devices. If you do experience a problem you can restore your
old drivers by using DXSETUP.EXE as mentioned above and selecting Restore
Audio Drivers or Restore Display drivers.
If your computer has never had the pleasure of having DirectX™ 5.0 installed
onto it, then when you attempt to install Broken Sword 2, you may see a message
prompting you to replace your existing drivers with the ones from the DirectX™
5.0 installation. It is recommended that you do NOT do this, unless you are certain
that your current drivers are fully DirectX™ 5.0 compatible. If you are unsure, then
please contact your hardware supplier or manufacturer and verify this information
with them.
