DX 9.0a question

[Triton]

I have dx 9.0a on my computer, along with a radeon 9500...when i run the diagnostic tests for DX, and it asks me if i see a spinning cube with dx written on the sides, i somewhat see a cube, but it looks like it is rotating incredibly fast, like 20-30 times faster than it should, but i can still somewhat see that it resembles a cube with extremely blurred text due to the speed, it never used to do this, is this a problem?

probably just hte card is so fast you can't read it. What other benchmark scores you been getting.?

[Bigjakkstaffa]

I would only worry if DXDiag specifically tells you the card failed any of the tests, its prolly just the speed of the card yeah

--Jakk:t

well it doesnt say that anything has failed

my benchmark scores have been about 3000-3500, and around 11000 on 3dmark 2003 and 2001

Yep, that's the vid card outpacing a poorly-designed test (one that depends on fill rate for rotation speed.)

M$ :rolleyes:

i've also experienced that, when i installed the DX 9.0 the updated it to 9.0a.... i can see the x mark on the sides so what i did was have a dx 8.1 card installed then reinstalled dx 8.1 then after that installed put my new card and updated to dx 9.0a...
