Video driver not supported?? Help!

[rjrichar40]

I'm unable to start the game. I get a little window which has a drop down menu, and the only option available is "no video modes" with an Exit button. All my DXDIAG info is below. I'm able to play games like Half-Life 2 and a lot of other 3D type, graphically intense games without problems. Can anyone tell me if my chipset is totally unsupported for this product? I have plenty of RAM on both my graphics card and system memory...

Thanks.

It's the video card that is the problem, not the driver. You don't have one. The box states Video: 32 MB DirectX™ 8.1b Video Card
You have an intel onboard graphics controller.

Ok so i have the same set up.. with DirectX 9. So we can't play this game? I hope we can... I have opened the box and installed the program and now am unable to return and get my money back for a game i cannot play?

Please explain my otpions a little clearer than you did in your original post.. it was no help at all... just more confusion.
