Radeon to the rescue!! Woohoo!!! So it's almost 2:30, and I've had my game going since before 9, and no blue screen, no Direct3D error. I think my computer is cured! Now if only my friend doesn't back out on me for at least the 10th time and actually gets over here to transfer my RKC, Prosperity, and Legacy hoods, as well as all my downloads from my old comp to my new comp. Then maybe I can install Pets. Yay!
Any suggestions for those of us just starting to go through this with Dell? They will just send you the Radeon, under warranty? Do you get to keep your warranty?
