Thanks for your tips..
RedWolf,
I ran Dxdiag; On the 32-bit version it shows for that display
DirectDraw Accelaration: Disabled
Direct3D Acceleration: Partially
AGP Texture Acceleration: Not Available
If I run the 64-bit DXdiag, then however I get all three above as "Enabled". Not sure how I can test other 3D 32-bit stuff? I do not have an issue with other games so far... is there a way to get in the dxdiag 32-bit also all three items to "Enabled"?
Schrullenhaft,
I run Directx 9.0c update, but it did not help...
When putting the display to 1280 x 1024 it stretches out the image, but I can see it fine. CMBB and CMAK directly and fairly quickly offer me only 640 x 480 resolutions. And yes, I run these games as an administrator.
From the two displays there is indeed one setup as primary display. When I only used one display, the other was indeed disconnected from the PC.
