War Craft III technical help

[Bahamut2000X]

Well I was trying to play today and I can't get past the Blizzard Logo and opening movie. I get the sound of the screen I'm supposed to be seeing but the screen won't show at all. I tried reinstalling and still nothing. So anyoen know what I need to do to fix this?

try updating or restart windows and/or reinstall your video card, or wait about 15, 20 seconds, hope it helps

Ummm wlel let's hypothetically say I have no idea how to do that...how would I?

[Peegee]

do you have directX 9.0 or whatever latest version is out (terrible sentence sorry)?

[crono_logical]

I'd get the latest version of DirectX anyway (9.0b) - there's a critical bug found in it a day or two ago in all versions up to 9.0a, so you may as well take the chance to upgrade to the latest version your OS supports (if not 9.0b, get the seperate patchs too for your relevant DX and OS version )

[Bahamut2000X]

Already got the latest version. Still not working.

Go play the reforged version.
