That Video card is integrated with the MOTHERBOARD right

I am not sure what your problem is.

When you try to play the game the screen is black or something. (if this is the problem, then you need a NEW video Card)

i dont know

i cant figure anything out

http//support.intel.com/support/graphics/intel915g/ 8) Get the lastet drivers there.

onboard video... yum wink

Youa re trying to play Battlefield 2, correct.


This is what you have to do.


Go to a computer store, get a [b8f39160426]Video card higher than NVidia GeForce FX 5700, ATI Radeon 8500, or ATI Radeon 9500 with 128MB of RAM[/b8f39160426]


Install it on your PC, and youa e ready to play



[b8f39160426]Minimum requirements[/b8f39160426] Windows XP, 1.7GHz CPU, 512MB RAM, Video card higher than NVidia GeForce FX 5700, ATI Radeon 8500, or ATI Radeon 9500 with 128MB of RAM

go for a geforce 6600 -) you could get one for less than 150

damn i dont know if i want to spend that much money on a card

i thought i could just update the drivers since i have a pretty new computer

[b77afd319cc]NO[/b77afd319cc] - BUY a good video card (if you haev money) why? because new games are coming and youa re gonna have to buy another on to play them.

Just BUY a good video card.

I was assuming he didnt want to spend 300+ on a new video card. When my friends come to me asking what they should get I automatically assume they are on a budget. But yeah if it were me I would go with a 6800 ultra. I use a 6800 ultra oc myself.

i know a guy who is selling a radeon 9800pro

with
artic silencer($25) and ocz ram sinks($10) on it


how long would this last me (before it becomes obsolete)

also the guy said hes never used it(besides the demo) or overclocked it

3 years maybe.

If it's brand new and is not overclocked, then buy it

This one doesn't look too bad.....

Yeah, looks very nice, BUT for that price you can just gop and get it on a store

yeah on occasion ive seen 6800 ultras for 400 so thats not the greatest deal

my budget is like $100

so if i get the radeon9800 pro will i be able to play bf2 demo

Should be able to


And i'd give it a year before its considered a old card

Get that, its refurbished but if it doesn't work you can send it back.

the 9800pro is an awesome card. Id buy it if i were you. Its far better than an onboard intel card....
