Dude wtf? Do you have any idea how many of these exact same threads have been made?! Stop being a lazy fuck and search the site for the keyword video* or something. Sorry to tell you what you don't want to here, but yes, you will need a new card.... if you cannot check the options for specular or shadows, then your card is for shit. You either get a job, or ask your parents for a new card for christmas, you need to improvise. And if your parents are poor, steal the friggin' thing, and if you can't steal, well then tough luck, you won't be seeing specular or shadows anytime soon bud.

Is this your card? If it is, you will probably just have to upgrade... http://www.mysimon.com/4014-8899_8-2081 ... with+AGP8X

you should check your video card options and settings. Usually something is turned off from Windows XP and not the game.

Get updated drivers... make sure your system is in shape, etc.

You all peoples are so annoying... he asked for SOLUTION. If you guys dont know a solution, and are just gonna flame, then STFU.
