Strange, I got this game to work on both vista and xp Gma950 without modded drivers and with except on both systems when you get to the first test chamber the game would crash and on vista sometimes blue screen. I am curious, have you tried running it in compatibility mode yet?

Hell if missing vertex shaders was not a good enough reason for us to stop playing the latest games..... then a white screen seems lame..... Waiting eagerly...really don't want to play it in dx81...game is on hold P.S I've tried the forcehardwaresync command as well.... --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "INTEL 9XX Gaming" group.
