47997 2002-05-09 14:16:00 Hey ?
we tried to install a Dick Smith branded video capture card (xh6594) onto our school admin computer which is an older compac deskpro 166. it has its graphics 'onboard'. No one seems to be able to tell us if it supports 'direct draw' which is a requiremnt of the the card, is there a way to figure yes or no? is direct draw the same as direct X? Allso can we install a graphcs card that does to solve our problims. All we are trying to do is is monator a camera that looks over our sick bay that outputs composite video Any help would be welcome - thanx>

47998 2002-05-09 23:01:00 Direct Draw is a part of DirectX. Just make sure the PC is running at least DirectX 8 then it should be fine.

You can download DirectX from any old tech website worldwide.
