Hello, I am running Diablo on my TP560. I believe that this machine shares the same basic video card as the 760 (Trident 9385/9382), except without MPEG. Here are the steps I took to accomplish this. 1. Downloaded the latest TP560 video drivers from the IBM PC Co web site. 2. Downloaded the latest version of DirectX, V3.0A, from the Microsoft web site. 3. Installed the new video driver. 4. Installed DirectX 3.0A. 5. Installed Diablo. No errors and no problems. I am running with Win95A.
