Im trying to replay Maple Story. I did play before on my computer. Everytime I try to run MS, it says "Failure for gr2d" or something like that. How do I fix it? Something else, I dont know if my graphics needs to be updated or what but, everything is really dark on a lot of games I play on. Can I update by installing to make it look a lot better or do I take into a shop? Oh yeah, here's my DISPLAY info:

That error indicates that either your card or drivers or DirectX are inadequate for that game.

If you were able to play previously uninstall then reinstall your nVidia drivers and DirectX 9.0c.

With your other issues it sounds like your card might be failing in which case you need to replace it. There is nothing really fixable as far as the hardware is concerned.

So, I remove my nVidia driver and re-install it?

Yes and make sure you have DirectX 9.0c.

sometimes beta drivers might work better as well. nvidia's latest beta driver would be 93.81.

Then it should update my graphics from everything looking dark and dumb to good graphics and then I can play my games?

It is a step in that direction.

If it does not work the problem is probably in the hardware.

If that is the case then you probably need a new card.

Also verify that the monitor is OK. Is the darkness just in games? Is everything else looking OK?

Everything else is ok. It looks dark in the games

Then try new drivers and DirectX.

It might work.

If not it is probably the card.

Ok, I re-downloaded all the DirectX latest downloads. But now, do I remove all nVIDIA software on my computer then re-install them?
