Default Video Card...

I have had my computer for only just over two weeks. It is windows vista and
up until this afternoon I used the bubbles as my screen saver...then today I
get a message saying that the screen saver can not be run because it needs a
newer video card or one that is compatable with direct3d...what does this
mean...its brand new and has worked find until this?!

It is under Warranty; I'd be contacting the seller!

It means you are experiencing a problem and should contact the manufacturer
of your computer so you can get it fixed.
