Can this vid card run the game?

[Frigate Captain]

I just saw this game. I really want to play it because I used to play the classic one. However I am not at home in the next 4 months. My sister's computer only has SiS 650_651_740. It has only 32 mb ddr. Do u know for sure whether i can play it or not? I just dont want to wait 4 months.

You *might* be able to run it without harware T&L, but it is not officially supported. It works on my Intel 82845, with some graphical glitches.

Well, there are other uses for computers than 3D gaming...

or the other side, why have a amd 1ghz and a over powerfull graphics card like a 256mb. horses for courses, no point on having the worlds best gaming machine for word processing

I ran it using an Sis650 with 32MB RAM, it runs, slowly with some graphics glitches. Blue squares appear on the screeen sometimes.

Ooohh... I was looking how to resolve the problems that I was findig with the game and I think that I finally get the answer... The worst answer...

I have a vid card like this:
SIS 300/305/630/540/730
Chip: SIS 630
32 Mb.

I thought that the problem was try to actualizate my principal controller (sis300iv.dll) in order to compatilize it wiht the dammed directx 9... but now i read that the "migth" be that my card doesn ´t support T L...

Thats is the end? I can´t do anythig but buying a new vid card?

HELP!

I too have a pretty crappy SiS card. I got the game for christmas and I panicked since it didn't work. Well, I visited SiS's homepage and downloaded an update for my card. Now the game runs slowly but it's still playable.

but i tried to dowload the new controlers of my card and i can´t! How did you get the newest?

I have an intel 82810 graphics controller card. Will that work? I keep getting the "cannot initialize directX" error even though I downloaded the latest drivers for it.
