Integrated NVIDIA GeForce 6150 LE
Integrated NVIDIA GeForce 6150 LE graphics with up to 128MB shared video memory

Thats the graphics card you have, and thats the problem probably, you need to see if you can get seperate video card.

Yeah my compaq's V Card was also gay. I got NVIDA one too a while back. I was able to play till DFX. Having Extra RAM also helps. I just mine from 256 to 383

you should be able to run fine if you have a 128mb, if that the only games you wanna play

If you wanna play newer games spend the xtra cash and go for a 7800gtx

will try to see if you have a option to upgrade the video card and what type video card it need to be.

i use to have a GeForce 4 MX 440 it as a VGA 4x mother broad, it lag big time.

system totally burn out got a whole new system on broad Video System not that great! but i found out i can buy a PCI Express video card (16x slot) for it.

build in Video system are not that great in some ways they are limited not good for 3D games. best try to buy a Video card for it.

The amount of video memory doesn't matter at all, he could have 256mb of video memory and still not be able to run it, its the fact that some intergrated graphic controllers don't have the neccessary drivers or the ability to do special tasks needed for a game, so update you video driver's if possible, and if that does not work, i'm guessing scott would know more

Yeah, Rampage. is right. My friend at school had one freaking high spec system and he got a computer game that didn't require a high spec system... I realized he had an integrated graphics card, the game didn't support it.

Also I have a GeForce 4 MX-440 and it doesn't lag at all, and I have a low spec system. :/

»SA¡N†«ÅÅ, update to your latest DirectX and then come back.
