Yes, a gforce 8400 is DX10 capable. The tone of the post still remains the same.

Have a good day.

great stuff

If I may suggest to add a couple more pointers:

setting affinity to a single core through Task Manager. Maybe using a utility program for that you probably know better.

ScummVM for old Lucas Arts adventure games
DosBox for really old Dos based games
x360ce for getting XBOX 360 controller to work with older "Games for Windows" games

Hi asdfen, welcome to sevenforums....

As I stated it's not possible to include everything, nor will it, considering there are hundreds of things to try when troubleshooting PC games. This is simply a reminder of some basics.

Also the post would be pages long as opposed to a single post. In some regards I think it's a bit long now. Again I just wanted to give a basic starting point.

Hope you understand and thanks for the suggestions.
