ok tara make sure you read the box your game came in, on
the side or bottom there should be system requirements,
make sure you have the minimum atleast. than if you cant
find where to look for those do what you did for the
graphics card only this time just right click my computer
than properties. and tell us what the general tab says.

ok, now it seems like you have what you need to run the
game, however what you would want to do is make sure you
have the latest drivers for your graphics card. search
google for s3 pro svage ddr. than when you find the
manufactures website download the latest drivers. that
would be under the support or download section of the
website. since i'm not familiar with prosavage, i cant
t3ell you about their website. its very important that
you make surte you get the right driver to match your
card, other wise you could cause the computer not to
work, dxdiag typed in the run box at start will tell you
the info for your display. try these tips, otherwise you
might want to yell in this area for jimmy s. he can help
you also.
