Whenever I start Videowave or MyDVD I get a warning window informing me which video card I have and that the driver may be out of date. I have updated the driver prior to installation of EMC9 but can find no way to stop this window appearing.   !Not a major problem but very irritating.  Any suggestions would be welcome.  :)

This could indicate that your video card does not fully support DirectX 9.  What card do you have?

Leaving EMC 9 installed, try uninstalling then re-installing your video drivers.

happens to my test machine which has an onboard Intel video card... if you go to Tools -> Options, are you able to switch render mode to Hardware?

As it should. Looking at the S3 page, the ProSavage is a legacy chipset and if I remember correctly was designed for DirectX 5 or 6.  It would be advisable to purchase a newer video card.
