can't even lay the game

[crazyi]

i loaded up the game and tried to play it and it said my ati radeon 9700 pro is not fully directx8 compatble. the screen that comes up lets you select the video card i have a radeon 9700 pro and the it says it is going to do a resolution test and then says the test failed. i have downloaded the drivers of of gateways home page and ati's home page both and have tried to intsall them several time but no luck any suggestions? any help is greatly appriciated. thanks

Sometimes you have to uninstall the old drivers before installing the new one.

You try that?
