  1. Schrullenhaft-

    I'm sorry. I need better instructions than that. Like I said, i'm a novice.

    I think I did, in fact, re-install the old video drivers and then installed the newer "full package." I deleted it by right clicking on the driver and hitting uninstall. I re-booted my computer, which automatically turned the resolution down, and then hit a "setup".exe in the folder I have for the new driver pack. It went ahead and installed it, and then I re-started. And now I see that driver in my "device manager."

    The Direct X Diagnostic tests works fine, and none of the three "DirectX Features" are greyed out.

    I also tried running in 16-bit color, but that doesn't work either.

    How exactly do I increase memory allocation to my video in the CMOS/BIOS setup?

    Once again, thank you VERY much for your patience and direction.

    -Matt

  2. Hello guys-

    Here's my system:

    Sony Vaio PCV-RX760(UC)

    BIOS version: BIOS Revision 1003

    OS: Windows XP version 5.01.2600

    CPU: IntelĀ® PentiumĀ® 4 2200 MHz

    System memory: 512 MBytes

    Chip set: SIS650_740

    Here's my problem:

    I go to enter a mission and "Loading 3D Graphics" appears on the screen. That message continues even after it seems that I have entered the game. I hear sounds and have the info bar at the bottom, but the message remains on the screen with a black background. I even move my mouse around and see a blurring of some text on the game screen.

    I have tried erasing Quick Time from my system, have repeatedly tried to hit alt+tab, and have tried re-installing and setting up with much smaller screen resolutions, but nothing helps.

    After waiting so long to see this game, it's a kick in the teeth to be having problems running the demo with my 2 month old system.

    I have downloaded the update for my SIS650_740 driver, but am not sure what to do with it now. As you can tell, i'm a novice.

    Any and all help would be GREATLY appreciated.

    PS- It was hard for me to follow some of the suggestions on the forum. If you can, please dumb down your suggestion when it comes to what steps to follow.
