Having Some Trouble with the Graphics Card...
So I've finally gotten the updates to work and download completely without any interruptions on my line, and once it finally gets to working, I was all like "Finally! I can play now!!". Unfortunately, 'twas (sp?) not the case. My computer suddenly tells me that I cannot play the game because I don't have the correct applications to do so. So then, I have to go out and buy a very expensive graphic card (100$ is expensive to me >>). I then tried to get the Nvidia graphics card in, and guess what? I find out that I have another problem. I have a Windows XP and my current graphic card is attached to the motherboard. I am trying to find out how to get this graphics card to work on my machine, but no matter what I do, I can't get it going. When I get the Nvidia in, the two graphics card clash and compete and my screen will not come up, it will merely remain black and stay that way until one of the cards is removed. Lastly, I can't call Nvidia because they don't work on Sundays -_-' Happy days. Can anyone tell me a way to maybe get them to work? Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Regards,

You'll have to go into your motherboard's BIOS and disable the onboard video card. Getting into your BIOS will depend on what mobo/brand PC you have. Most you'll hit the Del key at the first screen. I know for Dell hit F2 at the Dell screen, don't know about the others. Your best bet is to look in your computer's/motherboard's manual to find out how to get into the BIOS.

If it's a really old motherboard, you might can diable the onboard video via jumpers on the motherboard. Again, check your manual on how to do this.
