I'm having this problem opening the game. First it says, "Error initializing 3D Hardware. Your hardware does not support DirectX 8. Be sure to install the latest video drivers. Software will now be used..." So, I click that and it then says, "Could not initialize DirectX Graphics. You must have installed DirectX 8 or better. Try turning off extra options like Antialiasing.." After I click ok, it closes.. Well.. For one thing.. I've never EVER had this problem before.. I DID install the latest video drivers and I did the motherboard update.. I recently have installed XP Pro.. I did have Windows ME before.. It was on windows me when I didn't have the problem.. I also have DirectX 9.0c.. I'm running on Win XP, 598 MHZ Intel Celeron, 192 MB RAM.. oh.. and the brand is a Dell.. Again.. I never had this problem when I was running on Win ME.. Thanks ahead for any input.

Well, did you ever try turning off anti-aliasing?

If that doesn't help, reinstall the game, restart your computer, and everything should be fine.

What's the name of your graphic card?
