Extra: Provides more authentically pleasing set
of effects. Requires faster graphics card.
This "Searching for drivers" dialog box getting stuck there. Is this a hardware problem with my desktop? Because when i tried to same thing in my laptop i didn't had any trouble of doing it.
But in my desktop i can't do this changes.
