Check
whether you have installed DirectX version
over 8.0
You need DirectX
8.1 or higher version in order to run Gunbound
without any trouble.
First you need to check to see if you have
installed DirectX version over 8.0
02.
If
your DirectX version is lower than 8.0
If your DirectX
version is lower than 8.0, game GunBound might
not run correctly.
In this case go to Download in our homepage
(Http://gunbound.net) and download the DirectX
8.1 according to the OS for your computer
and install it.

Checking
what Graphic card you have and its version
In order to
play GunBound in the best condition provided,
you should have graphic card with 3D accelerator.
The game might not run if your graphic card
doesn't support 3D video support. So when
the game won't run, you should check what
graphic card you have and check whether its
version is the latest one.
To check what graphic card you have and its
version, Go to "Control Panel " => "System"
=> Hardware => Tool Management =>
Display Adapter and you'll see what graphic
card you have and if you double click on your
graphic card, you'll see what version of driver
you have.
<Picture 1 - confirming DirectX
version>
Do [Start -> Run(R) -> dxdiag] just
like picture 1 and you'll see the version
of DirectX just like picture 2.
<Picture 2 - Checking DirectX version>
As you can see in the picture above
you can check the version of DirectX in your
system. If you confirm that your DirectX version
is lower than 8.0 choose to download the DirectX8.1
for your OS.
04.
Checking
3D accelerator support of your graphic card.
To play GunBound
you need 3D accelerator supporting graphic
card. Even if it does support 3D acceleration
wrong driver or old version of your graphic
card might result in not being able to run
GunBound correctly. So you should check whether
your graphic card supports 3D accelerator
first.
How to check : Go to start
and in your Run Menu you type in dxdiag and
you'll see [DirectX Detect Tool]. Here you
click [Display] and you'll see whether it
supports DirectX accelerator function. If
it says it doesn't support Direct 3D accelerator
you are likely to be using old version of
graphic card driver. So you should download
the latest driver of your graphic card and
reboot to run game.
Even when your installed latest driver and
still says that it can't use Direct3D accelerator,
your graphic card is likely to not support
3D accelerator function. In this case you
should get graphic card that does support
3D accelerator function to enjoy the game.
The entire graphic cards that are coming out
in recent days do support 3D video card so
you might want to look far ahead and buy one.
