Post by: Envy_ on March 22, 2007, 04:16:02 pm
Hello;
I've got a question about my videocard,
My options: Smooth edges and Special Event Camera are disabled,
Is it possible that my videocard isn't good enough ?
Here is some information about my card:

Intel extreme Graphics are these days a dinosaur. Not putting down your computer, just a fact with faster, bigger games with lots of graphics. I have an old Dell setting here that came with that also. I went to an Nvidia Fx5500 pci graphics card. It did OK up through Glamor Stuff, But Pets marked the end of the road for it otherwise. I will probably get yelled at by some one saying I'm crazy, but Even with 256 Mb of dedicated memory, paired with a 2.2 Ghz Celeron and 1 Gb of pc 2100 ddr, it just couldn't get the job done. So yes, it is time for you to upgrade. Sorry for the ramble. :)
