first of all: how do u download a graphics card, or was it a driver for ur card.
secondly: isnt 30 pounds like 60 dollars (ur damn spoiled)
and finnally to answer ur question: just save ur money and buy a new card. i have a nivida geforce fx 5600 256mb i bought it when it was almost top of the line but now its like $200 or something
(quit being a nOOb and look around more)

buy a 9800se instead of 5600 256, 9800 is a whole lot faster
price of:
9800se- 170
5600- 256mb- 160

Wow...... crap. You are spoiled. Yur getting 53.19 dollars a month?!? I get 12... maybe. And I can't spend it on things that I want to. All I do is use it to buy food and other random stuff, never something big.

It's not your video card unless you did something to physically damage it. I know from experience (

) that a GeForce 2 MX
can run halo. In fact, that's the card in my brother's computer right now. And he plays halo on it.
Install the latest device driver for it, and try it again. Hehe, I'm getting a Radeon 9800XT... I so happy.
