I have a Dell something or another that I put a Radeon 9600 in, and I've been trying to get it to work, but I can't get any 3D acceleration to work, DirectX or OpenGL. I've tried various releases of drivers, but nothing is working. Does anyone know what is wrong?

Maybe obvious answer, but did you try actually enabling graphics acceleration ? It is disabled by default on 2003.

See : https://petri.com/enable_graphic_acceleration … in_windows_2003 or https://www.visualwin.com/DirectX/ or Google.

Thanks, that worked.

Sorry for being dumb, I thought that setting was set once and forget, but I guess changing GPUs resets it.
