Thanks for the response -- in my angst I completely forgot that I needed to
install the openGL patch (so I did do something dumb after all!) I use my
computer for trading too but honestly, I could satisfy that requirement with
an 800 and an average video card -- so the decision to go for a 1Gig was
purely based on GPL (and SCGT and Falcon 4) Incidentally, I used to race
(FF, FSF, Imsa FH and GTU) and the cost of the 1 Gig wouln't pay for one
races' tires/supplies. Thanks again.
