Buy a new gfx card

[ExoticAmber]

Theres no other way around it? Csn i download anything to make it work lol?

[loserII]

no even if you did get it going it won't be worth playing without a new graphics card and you probably need more ram as well

If that's onboard Graphics, which it looks like it is, then you need a fairly up to date Graphics card :thumbup:
