Wasnt sure if i should post here or the help section because its about half life 2. I went on the HL2 forums but they weren't very helpful. Heres my problem.
I start half life 2 and I get the following:
*Game starts in small window plays valve logo video and closes with following message*
Video Mode Warning
failed to set video mode- resetting defaults
Game will now restart with new video settings.
*game opens and plays the valve logo video then shuts down with following message*
Video Mode Warning
failed to set video mode- falling back to safe mode settings
Game will now restart with new video settings.
*game opens palys valve logo video and closes with following message*
Game has a minimum requirement of directx 7.0 compatible hardware.
I have a nVIDIA GeForce graphic card and directx 9.0 so i dont know why its saying that. any help would be much appreciated.
P.S
I forget how to check what video card im using and things like that so for now i can only tell you that its a Geforce, if you could tell me how to check it ill get back to you with that info.
