Potential video card problem

[bob_barron]

I bought NHL 06 and when I went to play it it said:

 

Your 3D accelerator card and/or video card could not be initalized properly. Please update the drivers for your 3D and/or video card. Contact your manufacturer to obtain the latest drivers.

 

So, do I need a new video card or something?? Any help would be appreciated!

...and what kind of video card do you have now?

[bob_barron]

I really don't know- do you know where on the comp I can find out??

 

Sorry I'm so computer illiterate.

control panel ->system ->device manager .. look for display adapter, that'll tell you what video card you have

[bob_barron]

I have an Intel® 82845G/GL/GE/PE/GV Graphics Controller.

 

Is that good?

I believe that's an integrated card. It may not be strong enough to run the game. You might have to pick up a graphics card.

Or go to the computer manufacturer website and download the newest video card drivers for you model of computer.

I tried dling updates at Intel and HP and did, but the game still won't play.

 

Off to Future Shop it looks like.
