Oh, and no I haven't tried that patch yet Pabbi.

Hello Rad19z,
You will have to upgrade your graphics. The GeForce 6150 SE is an integrated chip and not even a graphic card. (from what I have researched)

You should check around and see about getting a graphic card. The rest of your computer is fine.

Thanks.

Will the game only work with a select few video cards which this particular game supports. Or if I buy a card which will work in my particular computer will it automatically work for this game?

I have no idea what I'm doing here and don't want to spend $100 only to find out it's not a supported card.

Greetings Captain Rad19z,
You can use any grfx card that supports Pixel Shader 2.0 or higher and greater than 1MB of on card RAM.
You will need to ensure that you have the proper open slot on the MoBo and a power supply that can handle the additional power load and has the appropriate connector.
A more complete list of your rigs specs would assist us in making a better determination of what you will need.

Boy am I already running way over my head! How do I come up with a list of specifications? It's been many years since I've opened up the case on one of my computers.

Thanks Wolferz!

Is it an off the shelf model?

Make and model would help immensely.

No, it was something a small place had built.

I got looking through the specs you posted and it reminded me of something. I remember, way back when I first started, some people were having video trouble. If I remember correctly, you need to have directx 9 installed for the game to run. It will not recognize later versions of directx.

Windows 7

AMD Athlon II X3 445 Processor 3.10 GHz
4 GB RAM
64 bit OS

Does that help any?
