ggrussell Posted July 5, 2006 Report Share Posted July 5, 2006 Most display problems can usually be fixed by updating your video drivers. Also make sure you have the latest DirectX. Unfortunately, Windows Update doesn't always give you the latest DirectX. Get the latest DirectX here. Integrated video chipsets on the motherboard seem to be the largest problem with EMC 8.

Since you have an on-board video card then you may be able to add a "real" video card and it will work nicely "along side" the on-board video. You just have to disable the on-board video and enable the new video card. Thats what I had to do because I also have an on-board video and I had to add the video card. My EMC would not work with the on-baord video. Another small comment. I find your posts a bit hard to read and follow because you do not use punctuation. Also there is no need for carriage returns when you type unless starting a new paragraph. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should be able to view pictures in Photosuite, but if you are trying to make a slideshow with this software, you are going to have problems with the programs not running, or the programs running extremely slow.
