I am wondering if I should return this pice-o-shite…I’ve uploaded DirectX 10 and re-loaded this program and the drivers 3 times along with restarting my PC 4 times, all to have a blurry gray monitor…This wasn’t what I paid for, I paid for something that would work not give me a difficult time…I’ve downloaded different programs and none of them are responding to this…I was wondering if someone could walk me through some steps for how to use this thing, like IM me on AIM at Hannahjoycapps83…I’m frustrated beyond words…Blah…
