If you have an Nvidia card… www.nvidia.com

If you have an ATI card… www.ati.com

i got non of the above including voodoo.
see, the thing is, the graphics card is intel graphics card (dont ask me its my uncle’s comp)
any solution? :frowning:

I think you are suppose to install the chipset drivers, which come with the integrated video drivers.

Not sure cause I never owned an integrated.

yo, im having the same problem with soldier of fortune 2 as well.

i used 2 be able 2 use it, and then i formatted my computer yesterday and i cant use it anymore. the nvidia drivers on their site dont help. and i can never find any detonator destroyer that actually works. i fixed the problem a while ago by installing a win2k driver that came with the motherboard, but now i cant do it anymore.

im running a crappy aladin nvdia tnt 2 card, and i only have drivers for win 98, 2000, and me. im running xp, and on my last xp install, i was able 2 force the driver 2 install (manually select drivers 2 install, and then continue installing win2k driver, regardless of possible instability), but i tried it this time and it wont even recognize the driver

any advice u have would be helpful
thanx,
pyeduke

What do the Nivdia drivers say? Something like “no card found…”?

If that is the case, I guess your TNT2 is soldered onto the motherboard?

You may try the omega drivers which allow a wider range of possible PCI-IDs variations.
