I think there is a standard PCI Graphics card option...I never thought there was a market for them but maybe there is...dunno how they perform though. Not great i suspect.

Well that was simple enough.

The intro videos were complete crap (fuzzy multi coloured crap) but the game runs better than my laptop runs it.

Laptop is P 2ghz Mobile and 512MB RAM with a Mobility Radeon 9000 32MB graphics card.

PC is P4 2.8ghz, 1Gb RAM and intel 82915G intel chipset

Might be ok matey. No black terrain, no visible side effects really, I guess it'll choke on Wonder Video's, but they all suck anyway.

Why the fairly decent laptop with the crappy gfx card in it?[]

Gotta agree, those wonder videos are nothing compared to the glory of civ2 wonder movies.

Ever wondered why those damn support people make you wait in line when you call them?

Well...:

I run World or Warcraft and Half Life 2 on these "crappy onboard graphics" card things.

I am almost certain you can get it running.

Have you got the latest drivers from Intel?

Believe it or not they do upgrade them and they do rock a little.

I imagine it is, yes...


20.6KB

It basically translates to:

"This steeringprogram can not be installed on the computer. Please contact the supplier of the computer for more information."

Right, that would explain it.

I'll see what happens when (if?) the game finally arrives... And then I'll take it from there.

Thanks Meli!
