It's a Dawn of War thing. Make sure you have DirectX 9 installed. Dawn of War requires it. |

Are you using Nvidia GFX cards, because there are still some games that have issues with vista and nvidia drivers. Doing a google search I found that issues arise with spooge errors in Dawn of War with people using 7800GTX and 8800GTX cards on Vista. -- Spector |

But in some cases, you need to have an older configuration installed - UT2004 is the same; doesn't run without Dx9.0c installed separately. |

spleling trouables Anyway, maybe you should try to update your graphic drivers. Might do the trick. -- Friendship is like peeing on yourself: everyone can see it, but only you get the warm feeling that it brings. |
