hi, Just two things that are driving me round the bend at the moment, any help is much appreciated... 1. Free memory. I want to check how much space my textures are using up - but no matter what I try, the numbers are the same before AND after the surface is created. For some reason if I specify the DDSCAPS_VIDEOMEMORY (or similiar) the program crashes... 2. FourCC's I want to check what texture formats are available, in particular the DXT1-5 formats. I run through the enumeration and end up with a list of 5 numbers; which is sort-of okay, the SDK tool says my card supports all the DXT formats, but these numbers dont mean anything. How can I get the text equivelent... thanks, Jack, www.vbexplorer.com/directx4vb/
