ok...exactly what error are you getting from C&C, and if no error, what is C&C doing when you try to play it. Also, it might not be a bad idea to update your directx to 9

[LA_MERC_Maverick]

i found some drivers for the prosavage card, but not sure if it is the one you need:

also, you might want to try windows update to see if it finds the latest driver for you, because according to s3, all of their drivers are on the winxp cd already:

:tosser I would strongly recommend getting a 64MB graphics card
I think you can get one of the ATI's for around $50
now, that would be a huge boost in your performance

Or I can just give you one next month Swamp...let me know

[Swampdog]

thanks tracker....wife bought the game for me but i didnt know she was.... i wouldve look at the min. requirements u know ....thanks everyone so i guess i am just going sit and wonder how the game is lol.....

[Tracker]

Swampdog I will bring the vid card with me when I come down,we can try it out to see if it will work...

[Swampdog]
