You won't have to look far - it is a common problem

I discovered that the drivers hadn't all gotten installed. The short story: I installed them.

The longer story:
I had installed using Bootcamp 5, which may not have been the right version for my computer (but it's what was on my updated OS.) I went to my wife's computer, used her Boot Camp 4 to re-format and re-install the drivers on a USB, then opened up windows and used the USB to install Boot Camp 4, which automatically loaded the right drivers.

Most things are working fine, now. Except after I direct characters to move, something weird is happening. It looks like they get directed properly, and it records ok, but when I go back to play their movements, they only move part of the way, then stop.

I have a 13" MacBook Pro laptop (mid 2010 w/ 4 GB RAM, 2.66 processor.) I tried using parallels, but was having weird issues w/ the mouse acting erratically. Everything seemed to be working _semi-OK_ (not usable, but working)- program loaded and I could create characters, etc, but when I tried to move anything (objects, characters, cameras) or I tried to direct character movement, things were uncontrollable.

SO I decided to go the bootcamp route. Loaded Windows 7. Downloaded Muvizu, but now I get the "your video card does not support alpha blending with floating point render targets" message that I read other folks had trouble with.

Is it that my video card is not up to snuff? Seems weird that it was semi-working w/ parallels, but then totally won't even _open_ now that I'm using a native windows system.

p.s. I tried using a friend's fancy brand-new macbook pro laptop w/ parallels and had similar problems with mouse behavior.]]> Thu, 19 Dec 2013 00:00:42 GMT
