There are 2 things you can check. Hit Start, run, then type DXdiag Go into the display tab, and make sure all your DX features are enabled. you might need to click them off, then back on, to toggle them. If that is a no go, go into your display properties, under the troubleshooting...

Yeah, I found that out. She told me her dad built the system, so I thought 'Generic Clone', but I was wrong. It was the weirdest HP system I have ever seen, about as non standard as you can possibly get.

Have you run a refresh rate fix program for the brand of video card you use? The reason I ask, is because windows 2000, and XP have a problem with DirectX being stuck at 60Hz, no matter what you set your desktop to. I had very slight (but annoying) stuttering in 3DMark and other D3D apps...
