[Sinja]

hi guys
please help me

i run an xp system sp2 with
intel D915GAV mobo
2x512GB kingston DDR ram
with intel chipset drivers.
no external graphics card

1. have been trying to run Prince of Persia Sands of TIme game on ma pc
but ave not been able to. it keeps getting manually terminated error.
i thought id buy graphics card after dis problem.the logo loads then it shuts down. error is process was manually terminated.
before starting the game i got a warning message tat the hardware might not be compatible.
does that mean i need Nvida graphics cards or just the drivers?

2 I need a Graphics card compatible with my Mobo am an avid gammer.
price is not an issue.any compatible graphics card will do
and were to put it >_< on my mobo.


3. can i install Nvida drivers for my mobo and try to run the game? without any graphics cards.
4. Nvida drivers can be run on intel chipset mobo??

1. GMA 900 lacks Hardware T&L, Which are required for Sands of Time, They are related to the Hardware. NOT the Drivers.

2. Price not a issue? How bout a Rs.30,000 NVIDIA Geforce 8800 Ultra?
Since you have a weak mobo, I'd suggest you go with 8600GT 256MB GDDR3 (for 5.5k) or 8400GS for 3k.
AFAIK, 915GAV comes with a x16 PCI-E Slot, So you can buy the above gfx cards.

3. No, LOL!

4. No

U can run pop:sot on 915 by using 3d analyze without any problem

Oh Yeh! Forgot 3DAnalyze! You can use that software to 'emulate' some basic HW T&L and Pixel Shader functions. Google for more info.
