Problem running JK in WinXP
2006-09-16, 5:34 AM #1
Ok so just recently i did a dual boot with Windows XP Media Center and Windows blow me... woops i mean Me anyway i went to install JK on it and it worked except it said i needed to install Direct X. I tried from the JK cd but that didnt work so then i downloaded the newest version and that still didnt work so finnaly i downloaded drivers for my graphics card and that STILL didnt work. JK runs fine on Me but it just keeps giving me the same message that i need to install direct x on XP does anyone know how i can get arid of this?

System im running
Pentium III 933mhz
NVDIA GeForce MX 4000 128mb
440 gb of hd space
512 mb of ram
dual boot XP and Me

Maybe try a reinstall now that you have directx installed?

Sounds like 3d Acceleration might not be on.... so, to fix that, in JK, go to Setup|Display and make sure "Enable 3d Acceleration" is checked. :)
May the mass times acceleration be with you.
