Graphics Issue

[Meds]

Would be nice if ANY of you could tell me what i'm doing wrong here, warzone2100 worked fine on my old laptop til the motherboard fried.
I played this game on playstation 1 when i was just a kid & i got this odd craving to play it again.
When i go to start a game i get this sh*t.

Does any of this sh*t help determine the Graphics card?

Helped & it didn't help, any other ideas?

Intel graphics adapters are crap at OpenGL (what the game uses to draw) and your card is no exception. Try getiing an Nvidia or ATI card or something.

Could i just download an ATI graphics driver, would that work?

In the future, go to Dell.com, click "drivers & downloads", and the rest should be obvious from there.

...Please don't say that. It's not true (well, to be exact, it hasn't been true for a long time).

965-series is the GMA X3100. It's definitely plenty enough to play Warzone with (and better than quite a few ATI cards, I might add), as long as you have the correct drivers (which I've helpfully linked above).

No, it'll either give you an error message or crash your computer. Drivers don't work that way.

That worked, gracias.
I can now happily play warzone & eat my kraft dinner (;
