Warhammer 40k: Dawn of War Message Board  

So i installed the game, no problems what so ever, no warning no nothing, when it's all done i go to play the game (o and by the way this is the gold edition, and i have tried both of them) and then i get a window thats says:

ERRORS:
Spooge driver not found. Verify that DirectX is properly installed.

now i know nothing about computer, so i have no idea what a "Spooge driver" is, and i also don't know what the deal is with my DirectX. If it helps my graphic card is NVIDIA Geforce4 MX 440. i have also tried download DirectX 9.0 but nothing happens when i go to play the game i get the sam message.

O and before i forget on the window when i click "ok" it takes me to the DOW graphics configuration, and when i'm there nothing comes up it's just a blank window. If any one can help i'll be grateful

I dont think that graphics card is good enough for it

What's Your Nvidia Driver Version?

Coz I Played the Same game With The same vga, and i dont have any problems

You should try to update your drivers, go to www.nvidia.com and click on download drivers

bibed how old is your computer cause i had the same problem and all i needed to do was get a new computer

I would go and update your drivers ( post from above ).

Then install the lastest verison of DirectX. When you start the CD, a menu pops up. Select install DirectX 9.0 , or what verison it is now.

It is a driver problem.
