my son bought this game and we get this error:
Video card or driver doesn't support alpha blending
I'm not very technical, but I think we have a Sis M650 card.
Could anyone walk me through what we need to do to get the game to work?
Here's waht I have found out about my Display system information, if it helps!

you are using intergrated graphics. This means your video card is part of the system board. It does not support gaming. Especially those games that require direct x 9.

So there's nothing we can do then, to make it work?

If you have an AGP port available or a PCI-X port available then you can have the option of upgrading your video card.

Do you know the make/model of your pc?

[milledge]

it's a Dell laptop, Inspiron 1000

Your can't upgrade the graphics card on a laptop, sorry.

Son will just have to wait until we buy a decent PC one day.
Thanks for your help
