I have a Via S3g integrated card and A.O.M. wont start.Microsoft cant help and altho the Viaarena forum has some answers, They were too techie for this newbie to understand or use. It seems to be a recognised but solvable prob. Anyone got a idiots guide to how to solve it. If I find one in the meantime, I will post it.

and altho the Viaarena forum has some answers, They were too techie for this
newbie to understand or use. It seems to be a recognised but solvable prob.

The graphics chip simply isn't supported. Sure you might be able to get
some dodgy work around, but it's most likely going to run really choppy and
could well simply be unplayable - at best.

For the price of the game you can probably buy a modern low-end card that
will work xx number of times better then that S3 would even if it was
supported.

Upgrading is the only real solution.
