I'm having a hard time trying to to make this work...

I installed Virtual PC 2007 on my:
Intel Pentium 4 3.06Ghz
ASUS motherboard
1Gb RAM
128Mb Video card
80Gb of HDD
Windows XP Prof OEM SP2 with updated patches

inside VPC2007: Windows XP Prof (the same OS on my physical CPU)
I installed RAN Online (Phil. Server), by the time in starting the game...
it switches to reference rasterizer because the game said
" No hardware-accelerated Direct3D devices were found. Switching to the
reference rasterizer, a software device that implements the entire
Direct3D feature set, but runs very slowly."

I already installed Microsoft DirectX SDK in my physical CPU...

Is there a way to use my physical video accelerator to my virtual OS?

You may like to ask this question in the microsoft.public.virtualpc news
group, but, as I understand it, VPC emulates an S3 Trio (or something
similar) video card and does not use your installed video card
