video driver wont enable

for some reason i cant enable video driver but can still use mouse sync... and also idk if its related, but i cant use programs lik movie maker either because something w/ my video card, but im pretty sure a macbook's video card should b good enough to run it

 

Open Device manager in Windows and make sure that video card is not disabled

 

if its the display adapter.. it is runnng and has even been updated

 

Uninstall the Parallels Video Driver from the Device Manager and reinstall Parallels Tools.

 

ok sweet, so that is enabled now...but i still cant open programs lik movie maker...says not good enough video card which i find BS b/c mac has great video

 

Yes, several software is not compatible, make sure that DirectX Shaders are enabled on Video

 

How do you go about enabling the Shader in Video? Where would the settings be on WinXP SP3? What needs to be checked for and changed exactly? How do I also find out what video card is installed, where is this information available?

 

DirectX Shaders support is enabled thru Parallels Configuration Editor for your VM under the Video category.
