Re: need proper 3d graphics please help
Does your computer meet the minimum system requirements for IMVU?
Quote:
If you mean your computer is generally slow when dealing with 3D graphics, have you installed DirectX and the latest driver for your graphics card?

Re: need proper 3d graphics please help
By 'software' do you mean for creating 3D characters and models, or running 3D applications? They're 2 very different things and we can't help until we know which you mean.
![]() Does your computer meet the minimum required system specs? Have you installed the latest DirectX? This will help with graphical/3D programs like IMVU. What graphics card do you have, and have you installed the drivers for it?

Re: need proper 3d graphics please help
i cant really explain it because im not good with computers like that, but im going to try my best to. ok like one time i downloaded this 3d chat called moove and before i could log in, it said something like, the proper 3d graphics are not installed and most items will not show correctly. it said somehting like that, but i think it is the same for imvu and i dont think i have a graphical card and i have download directx. and for this part 'If your PC does not have a 3D video card then you will need a
processor of 1.5 Ghz or greater. " i think thats what i need but i dont get what they mean by that so can you tell me what to download |

Re: need proper 3d graphics please help
Go to Start > Run, type dxdiag and hit the OK button. Go to the Display tab at the top and post back with the details under Device for Name & Manufacturer, and under Drivers Main Driver & Version.
This will tell us what graphics card you have or if the graphics features are built into the motherboard. To see your CPU details, go to Start > Control Panel > System > Hardware tab > Device Manager button. Click the [+] beside Processors to see the name and speed of your CPU. I think the problem is that your computer can't handle 3D graphics because it is not powerful enough.

Re: need proper 3d graphics please help
You can try this newer version of the driver (5.1.2001.0) to see if it helps, but the Trident is old and not designed for 3D programs, so it will be very slow and laggy if it even works at all.
Download from http://www.soft32.com/download_179085.html, install and reboot.

Re: need proper 3d graphics please help
judging from earlier posts that you are using a trident 9680 with only 2MB and winme OS i'd say your pc does not meet the minimum requirements to run imvu. can you right click on 'my computer' and select properties. at the bottom it should state how much RAM is on the system. post back with how much you have.

Re: need proper 3d graphics please help [moved from Graphic Design]
That Trident chip is 2D only. The problem here is thta you don't even have barely the minimum hardware to run this program. You need a new video card. if it's a laptop, then a new laptop or desktop is necessary to run it. You can't simply download a new video card.
