What video card do you have?

 

sounds like a Dx 7 card or a basic PCI card.

 

Having same problem

 

What video card?

 

I had the same problems with my game apart from the fullscreen gamma issue. The problem is that your card sounds terrible. Either it is extremely old and outdated (in which case get a new one such as the minimum spec requirements on the box) or it is an integrated card in a laptop (which is what i have). If its in a tower then simply replace it but if its a laptop you only have two options. The first is to take the game back, or the second is to buy a new computer. The nature of laptops and integrated graphics cards means you can not replace it (which totally sucks).

So anyway, either replace the card or get a new computer.

 

will u please tell me how can i solve this problem..... please send me the answer as soon as possible..

 

you don't get it. You can not solve the problem. The only way to solve it is to get a new graphics card or if its integrated get a new computer.

 

I have intel desktop motherboard D945GTP with cards built-in (including the video card)
I have the same problem of not supporting UBYTE4N vertex data
I have brought the latest driver from the site but the problem is still present

What can I do???

 

First try updating the driver & DirectX. But if that doesn't work then I would agree that the card doesn't meet the minimum system requirements.

 

Hi, New here.

I advised my brother today to buy a computer. he likes gaming and this one although not a make( not in england anyway) looked like it was pretty good. However we have the same problem as the origional poster.

The computer is a GATEWAY GT5092 and can be found on: www.uk.gateway.com/products/product.html?prod=GT5092b

Looking at the rest of the spec it will be extremely dissapointing to have to change the graphics card before he's played a game. I was fooled where it says up to 256Mb which i thought was good.

If as likely he has to change the card can you reccommend a card that will fit this computer and run with the rest of the spec and will take a while to need updating again.

cheers anyone for any feedback.

That is strange, the GMA3100 should support at least SM 3.0. Try updating the drivers from Intel's web site.

 

Cheers for the response.

My brother just got the comp today and only wanted it for games. So he's not on the net and doesen't really want to be. can i download them in any way and disc them to take to him.
Also SM?

A bit of extra info when i looked at his system details.
Total available 256
dedicated video memory 0
system video memory 128mb
shared system memory 128mb

does the dedicated video part mean i haven't set it up for him?

cheers again matt for giving us a bit of hope.

 

Means you have integrated graphics. You won't be able to do anything. You'll need a new GFX...

Matt, no Intel GFX will play COD4, let along BF2...

 

so it says a spare pci slot. This means for a new graphics card. can you let me know what i'm looking for. will a ati radeon work with this set up and which one without breaking the bank.

The official site for this computer says (See the link) "premium graphics"
it's a bit poor of them i think.
cheers again you two. Let us know about the card.
cheers.

X1650...

 

This one.
www.ebuyer.com/product/125014/show_product_reviews

50 quid is reasonable although still a bit cheesed off. Is it easy to fit and can you say if theres any future problems with this computer.
sorry for the million questions but i'd like to sort it quickly for him.

cheers again for the help.

 

No problem. Yeah, that's the one. Make sure your PSU can handle it, and that the case is big enough...

 

Ok. PSU (probably obvious but my heads done in.) can you explain. And how do i know the case is big enough.

cheers yet again. 2 more answers and then i'm off to bed. cheers.

 

That is an AGP card so it won't be compatible. You want a PCIe card. Also avoid the X1650 Pro because most of them have underclocked DDR2.

What is your price range? You will need a new power supply (aka PSU) for the new video card. The one Gateway ships is not powerful enough.

 

Price range depends on power price. I feel bad about getting him to buy this computer so i will pay to put it right. My missus isn't happy about it though.
He used all his holiday pay(his first job) so can update the card again in a year or so, so a card that will do to play call of duty 4 as cheap as poss. Can you give me details of the power supply as well.

Is it easy to fit. Do i just slot it in the spare slot.

A lot of questions but i want to put it right for him as quickly as poss.

cheers matt. much appreciated.

p.s where are you based. i'm uk.

Christmas doo today and tonight so may not get back to you for a couple of days unless your about before 12 my time today.

cheers again your a star.

 

Take a look at one of these choices:

And these for power supplies:
http://www.ebuyer.com/product/114933
http://www.ebuyer.com/product/115010

You simply have to push the card down into the PCIe slot and screw it into place. To install the power supply, you have to unplug all the connectors from the old one, unscrew it from the case, reattach the new one, and reconnect all the power connectors. Be sure when you are installing the power supply to make a note of which connectors went where so you don't forget to reconnect one.

 

Cheers MATT.

Happy christmas and new year. Your help is appreciated.

You're welcome. Happy holidays to you too. Post back if you have any other questions.

 

Sorry could i just ask what the psu (i'm getting good at this) is inside this computer.(gateway) Or how i find out.

cheers again.stu

 

Matt. Been on to gateway and they say it is 350w.

However they say that radeon x1650 won't play the game at full speed. Could you offer another alternative.

cheers stu

 

ahhhh x1950. My mistake
cheers stu.
