Adam,
I wish mine had just installed 2D at install. It would not work with the
card otherwise I would not ask the question. It Tries the Geforce driver in
the install and then tries to test it and fails to work. I dont know why.
That is why I was asking for help. I am not involved in their pissing
contest. I joined after all that stuff was going on aparently.
