About Judy

As WP's managing editor, I edit review and preview articles, attempt to keep up with the frantic pace of Rainier's news posts, and keep our reviewers on deadline, which is akin to herding cats. When I have a moment to myself and don't have my nose in a book, I like to play action/RPG, adventure and platforming games.

V. TROUBLESHOOTING
-------------------------

THQ thoroughly tests its games on a variety of systems before they are released, but it is virtually impossible to test on all combinations of software and hardware. Many of the issues you may encounter are
caused by device drivers for video cards, sound cards and CD-ROM drives that are not fully compatible with the Windows operating system and/or DirectX. The following troubleshooting tips are intended to drives that are not fully compatible with the Windows operating system and/or DirectX. The following troubleshooting tips are intended to assist you in solving some of the common issues you might experience in relation to the game.

---------DirectX 9.0 for Windows---------

For those unfamiliar with DirectX, it is an API (Application Programming Interface) set that increases the functionality and speed at which games play under the Windows operating system. These API's
allow direct access to the enhanced features of hardware under Windows. With DirectX, a program has instant access to the hardware, allowing for great advances in graphics, sound, video, 3D and network capabilities of games.

If you have other Windows games on your computer, chances are you already have an earlier version of DirectX installed. In this case, it is recommended to install Microsoft DirectX 9.0. This should not affect any games using previous versions of DirectX.

Should you encounter problems with DirectX, go to http://www.microsoft.com/directx/ for additional information.
