I am trying to run GoogleEarth under VPC7/WIN XP on a G5 1.8/10.4.6
At start up Google Earth tells me that it prefers "Direct X" mode but
as that is blocked I should use "Open GL" which will be slower.
Eventually the Google Earth window opens with all the places, contols
and other bits showing but the main map window remains black.
Has any other lunatic like me had experience with this combination?
Google Earth runs beautifully in Mac direct mode but the upgrade to
access many high resolution shots, for the $20 fee, is available only
for PC at present and the higher resolution is what I am after. Not
quite such a looney idea perhaps!? And it is vital to identify my
wife's cousin's house in Surrey!
