Well your video is integrated into the board. Have you tried downloading the lates S3 ProSavage DDR drivers? You can get them from the site below:

Doh! I seriously doubt that card can produce a playable experience with this game. It puts a hit on my 9800 Pro If newest drivers don't work for you I suggest looking into another video card.

Graphics cards

So what do you recommend for a graphics card ATI or Nvidia and should i wait for dx10 compatiable cards

 

[mailpup]

You currently have onboard graphics. Does your motherboard have a PCI-E or AGP graphics card slot or neither? Any recommendations would depend on what your motherboard can accommodate.

Other options require pixel shader (nVidia Ti/FX ; Radeon 9200>+ )
