As some of you may have noticed , i have been having a heck load of problems getting Freelancer running. First it was the antivirus , and now my graphics card is acting up.
Basically what happens is that i cant get my graphics adaptor "SiS Mirage 3 Graphics" to work properly. To start with , the computer doesnt even start up when i have it set up. It only did once , today , but the screen turned dark and it didnt work again after a few seconds. Besides that , the computer is insisting on having some stupid "Standart VGA Graphics Adaptor" ( literal translation from my comp , which is in portuguese, so it might not be accurate) set up. Aparently , with that one set up , DirectX doesnt work properly. Also, whenever i try to update SiS Mirage 3 Graphics , it sets up the other one again!... What this means for FL ? Well , whenever i try to start it up , it says my graphics card isnt capable of 3D...
Aaand , this is basically it. Anyone have any idea how to make this work again ? Cause just a few days ago i was playing FL SP with no probs at all. Oh , and major kudos to Boss whos helped me so far.
Now , here are some pictures:
The 2 adaptor thingys

Some stuff bout Direct X and etc
Oh , by the way , i tried this with and without Discovery. The results were the same.
Anyways , thank you all in advance
