H-h-e-e-l-l-p-p !
Apparently (please forgive me if I'm wrong) AC3D 6.5.28 won't work at all with Windows 7...
What should I do ? Thierry |

Thanks, Mossie. But as far as I can understand, I'm up-to-date with Windows Update (it sounds like a joke, but it isn't)... I suffer from AC3D withdrawal! Can't stand it!

Thanks, Dennis. It does look like it : I did get that kind of message. Which leads me to another question : I have a more recent C++ redistributable because I just downloaded the latest DirectX SDK. Should I also go back to DirectX 9.0c?

Many thanks, Dennis. I followed your advice and everything works. I agree with you, I made an ass of myself, but then I'm used to it :-). Being in acute withdrawal of AC3D I just panicked. These things happen.

Ha, no worries. If you're going to panic about an upgrade, your operating system is definitely the one to panic about. It's not so easy to roll back an OS upgrade .
