Hi,

I've just borrowed a copy of Pirates! from a friend and I wanted to try it out on my PC. I rarely play any games on my PC so when I bought a new PC this yr, I just used my old 16MB Voodoo Banshee card.

The pirates! read me file says that the min system requirements for video is (my PC passes all the other sys. requirements):
DirectX® 9.0c-compatible 64 MB video card with Hardware T&L support.

When I try to load the game I get this message "Unable to initialize DirectX". I know my video card is really old, but is there any way possible of running this game using my banshee?

Thanks,

Raymond
