Quote: Hi there, You have identified some problems in your description already. First of all you need directX 9.0c for optimum performance with GE4. Also 128 ram is pushing it.
I have checked DirectX using DXDiag and found I actually already have DirectX 9 This is DXdiag report

According to GE requirements, 128MB is more than adequate to handle GE graphics
Quote: What graphics cards are recommended?
We recommend any graphics card with at least 32 MB of Video RAM and 3D-graphics rendering capabilities. However, if you would like to use Google Earth for more advanced features like movie making or using multiple overlays, a graphics card with at least 64 MB of virtual ram or above is suggested.
However after reloading GE after reboot, clear cache, etc, Clicking on Help - About GE - it still shows renderer as DirectX 8 I only have this problem at 0 Longtitude with cursor keys. Why should it only happen at 0 degrees Long?
