Im gutted

Why wont this run on my system?

Ive got 3000xp @ 2.25ghz, 1gig ram, x800 gto @ 16 pipes, directx 9.0c, latest ATi drivers.

But... when I run it for the first time it says:

Failed to find a supported hardware rendering device.

I have tried the newest catalyst drivers, the omega drivers and the 6.4 catalysts.

Any ideas?

Welcome to Gamereplays. The DXdiag log file is indicating - AGP Status: Not Available - so you do have a problem. The ATI driver link in my sig has instruction's on how to install the drivers - make sure you remove the old drivers in add/remove programs, reboot and use driver cleaner to remove any remaining traces of the driver........

Re install the latest drivers. Post another DXdiag log file. Can you also post a screenshot of the motherboard tab in CPUz....

Hi,

Thanks for your reply. I am actually going to format and reinstall my whole machine. I was getting an error when installing the drivers of zero service display error.

The card is pci-e btw, would that make any difference?

btw what screen off cpuz do you want?

A PCIe card should still show AGP Status: Enabled in the Dxdiag. I want the motherboard tab in CPUz .
