There's absolutely no difference between it and my geforce 6800 in playing 2d games.

32 MB might not be enough to run that game because it needs at least 32.

What are the system requirements for my computer?
P II 350 MHz
64 MB RAM
Windows 95/98/2000/ME/XP with DirectX 8.1
3D video card with 16 MB RAM
16-Bit sound card
8-x CD-ROM drive

just get any card. even a 9200se will run it.

It looks aabout as good as Civ3 and I ran that with a Rage Pro 8mb at 1024x786.

The video card works in the store's computer. But it doesn't work in both of my computers. My 6800 works in both of the computers. What is the reason?

ti4800 se. I have a 300w and a 350w. they are over enough for the 4800se. But in the store it works. For that athlon xp system, I bought it 2 years ago with the 4800se. It worked perfectly. Now it doesn't work with both of them.

I payed 15 dollars canadian. I think I'm going to take my computer there and let them plug the radeon card in there. If it works I'll buy it. I can't think of any solution and the guy at the store said that he can't do anything about it because he doesn't know.
