Update Graphics Driver

Hello

Fusion 4.1.1

XP Pro

Internet Explorer 8

Levelone FCS-0030 (IP CCTV)

Whenever I log into my CCTV page IE gives me this message "Please Install graphics Driver and DirectX 9 or above!"

After finding DirectX 9 and installing it (dxdiag in the run box verifies this), I continue to receive the above message.

I right click the desktop and choose properties, settings, advanced, adapter, properties, driver, this tells me that I am using VMware SVGA II (I have no idea if this is the latest, but I guess it must be as I am using vmware fusion 4.1.1) I can choose update the driver but then it asks me for a location and I have no idea where to find a driver or indeed what I am looking for.

Oddly when I first got the CCTV it worked perfectly, then I updated the firmware (via the levelone website) to enable email notifications and then the trouble began.

What is odd is that when I click OK on the "please install etc. etc.", a second window opens (it is called activemovie window) and displays the cctv image, so I am completely confused.

So given the graphic driver is the problem as DirectX 9.0 is installed and working, where do I get a graphic driver for fusion 4.1.1?

I haver requested levelone tech support but there has been no response. So if any of you know how to update a driver and which driver I need to update to I would be grateful.

I know it is a long shot asking here but it is asking for a graphics driver and Fusion is the emulator.

Have you installed the latest VMware Tools in the Windows Guest OS?  If yes, then you have the latest drivers available to the general public.
