Please complete your System Information in your profile. Clicking on this button -->Image will take you to a short tutorial, explaining how to find and complete that information. This way it will always be available, and will save you from retyping it in the future.

What version of PI? IF you're running PI-12 on Vista have you installed the Vista update? Of course PIX3 is Vista certified, and should work, at least it does on mine.

Have you updated MicroSoft Direct-X lately? The current update is June 2008. If not Go HERE and download the latest MS Direct-X drivers.

When ANY program that was working before suddenly develops a fault then the first thing that you must consider is "What has changed on my computer?"

Think carefully about any hardware or software that you have either installed or removed. Don't forget that this will also include any Microsoft Updates - especially if you have automatic updates activated.

Next step is to work your way through Troubleshooting your computer
