Hi,

I have to test an application. it's work only with ATI 9800 or GForce 4600 /
4800. I haven't this card so the software displays "use the reference
rasterizer to emulate graphic cards".

I tryed to install DirectX9b SDK but I don't know how to activate the
reference rasterizer.

Could you help me ?

Thank you

is the "enumerate ref" checkbox in the control panel checked?

your runtime matches the SDK?

Yes : allow hardware acceleration, enumerate Ramp Rasterieze and Enyumerate
Reference Rasterizer are checked.

I use Retail Version of the sdk.

do the samples allow you to pick the REF device?

really you should be using the debug version for dev, and only switch to the
retail version for perf testing. you may need to reinstall the SDK, I cant
recall, if you didnt chose debug on install. if debug is available, the
switch radio buttons in the control panel will be enabled.
