I am an avid player of Zero Hour. However, when I go to run the game, it gives me the error, (please make sure you have Directx 8.1 or higher or that your video card meets the minimum requirements). Here are my pc specs:

P4 3.02 GHZ
1 gig ram
Nvidia Geforce 6600
Direct x 9.0c directly from Microsoft

Has anyone else experienced this? If so, and you have a solution, please help. I have done the following things thus far and have yet to reach a positive outcome:

unistalled and reinstalled ZH
repaired ZH
unistalled and reinstalled my video card
unisntalled and reinstalled my drivers for the videocard
uninstalled and reinstalled direct x 9.0c (from various sights including Microsoft and the Directx9.0c driver from the videocard)
repaired XP
Tried installing earlier versions of Direct x.....but Xp wouldn't allow it.

The only thing i can see is that: XP is the Korean version....I installed the English version of the driver. Would this cause a problem!??!?! I thought that programming language was universal??? Anyways...I look forward to some intelligent responses. You guys seem to know your stuff here.
