do u understand it now?
tell us ur graphic card make/model or whatever and we can help u find the drivers u need.
Find out the manufacturer and model#
On Windows XP go to CONTROL PANEL >> SYSTEM >> DEVICE MANAGER >> DISPLAY ADAPTER.
The type of card will be displayed there.
If I were you I would find out if it will even run the game before you proceed to go through the trouble of updating your drivers. Even if it doesnt work with the game it's ALMOST always best to have the latest installed.
If the game will run on your card:
1. Go to the manufacturers website, look for a SUPPORT or DOWNLOAD section.
2. Download the appropriate and latest driver for your graphics card model.
3. Execute the EXE and follow the on-screen instruction, a reboot will most likely follow.
SiS 650
and i'll do wot u have told me n get back 2 u
thanks 4 ur input
That looks like it is the chipset, any idea what the actual card manufacturer and model # is ?
You may need to crack the case open and take a look at the card itself.

It's onboard video. It might not be enough for that game but worth a shot anyway. The driver link is above.
Can you tell us the rest of your computer specs or a make/model?
dats all i got i'll open the tower tomro n check it out

Wrong... If you just run the Driver installer before removing old drivers you can end up causing lots of crashes when trying to play video or games.Quote:

Step 1: Find the driver version installed at present
Control Panel
Performance & Maintanence
System
Hardware
Device Manager
Display Adapter

Write down the driver version... Mine is 7.1.2.4.
Step 2: Download nVidia Nasty File Remover
Step 3: Uninstall old drivers by following step 1 and clicking Uninstall Drivers. (This will uninstall GPU drivers only which is good if you have an nForce board because Control Panel can sometimes uninstall all nVidia drivers)
Step 4: Reboot PC
Step 5: Run nVidia Nasty File Remover and search for all files that relate to your driver version. I would look for all files that are 7.1.2.4 if I uninstalled mine. Select them and delete them.
Step 6: Reboot PC
Step 7: Install new drivers. Check HERE for newest nVidia drivers that are suitable for your GPU. (Always reboot after installing drivers)
Hmmm VB I think you have lived in Quebec to long....:lol: or is it those easterners migrating into the province:DQuote:

@nishil... Why do you insist to not use full English words?
hmm maybe it is becuase of my age ....yes thats it sorry about that
ok i un-installed the driver and installed it again but the same thing happens ... the intro plays and then the credits
i have also updated the driver by going to the link that rossco gave but no joy there
ATI256 readion .....i think that is my graphic card model or something ...im not sure if it means anything
Why you dont just go to a hardware store, buy a cheap fx 5600 nvidia graphics card for 40 dollars and just plug it? The sis 650 sucks, its an Onboard graphics card....Maybe you can make it work...but the lag of graphics, the fps and textures will suck.
Just spend a little bucks and you will play it really smooth
you know what i just might do that but spend pounds instead of dollars
thanx
Not wrong.....just another way of doing it as the installer will overwrite files just fine.Quote:
