Hoop 0 Posted November 19, 2001 Hi, Im not 100% sure but you may need a better video card? I think a 16Mb card is minimum spec. Someone else might be able to tell you more. Hoop Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jason Alaska 0 Posted November 19, 2001 Drivers, Drivers, Drivers! Make sure you are running the newest drivers for all your hardware. That's fixed more problems on my system then anything... Well, that and a completly new system! :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
