i have a geforce256 with 32 mb on-board RAM.
winXP with SP1, 512 RAM.... blah, blabababablah, blah. my computer is up to snuff in all hardware aspects execpt the video card. i was screwing around with my ti4600 and am now having lock ups and baaaad visual glitches with t he card. i resorted to a bakup, geforce256, and am now using the card.
*this card will not run this game. the ti4600 is out of the picture.

i forgot to mention, im using directX 9b. i have the latest nVidia drivers.


the game just spits me back to windows. when i click on the *.exe the screen turns black, as if its going to load (what a freakin tease!), then it just go to windows desktop.


i ordered a MSI 5900 today just to get this game to run.
ill get it tomorrow.
CANT WAIT!

is this a openGL game?

FIXED THE PROBLEM. CHECKING MY DISPLAY PROPERTIES, I FIND THAT THE DRIVERS WERE NOT INSTALLED CORRECTLY.
OK, NOW THE GAME RUNS, BUT, IM GETTING VERY BAD CLIPPINGS. I GO TO MY OPENGL DISPLAY PROPERTIES AND SWITCH "buffer flipping mode" FROM "auto select" TO "use block tranfer".
i am now playing the game with no problems. clippings went away.

NEXT?!
