Hi,
I downloaded PS, but pssetup.exe crashes at start time, with a message that it generated a (Dr. Watson) log file (pasted in the end of this email).
I can still run PS itself (psclient.exe), but it says: \"No hardware acceleration\", and that makes it unusable (tooooo slow). I have a Matrox G450 DualHead, and I\'ve downloaded the latest drivers for it. I\'ve also downloaded some OpenGL test programs, and things seems to work a-ok, so I guess the problem is that I can\'t set it up. Is there another way to tell PS to use my card\'s acceleration?
BTW, I\'ve run the \"update\" thing...
(The forum does not allow me to post the thing with the entire log... I\'ll have to abridge. If you want the whole thing, just let me know)
Any help?
Thanks.
Zorzella
