    I upgraded my S3 ViRGE from 4MB to 8MB by installing a daughterboard.

      I have some onboard Intel 82 something-something graphics card that is only 4 megs or 8 megs. It was horrible because I bought Rise of Nations and can't even play it until I get a new graphics card.

        You could go to a second-hand computer parts store, and find many cheap 8mb cards lying around. More than likely being used to prop shelves up or under table legs to stop the table from wobbling.

              PCI is about 30-40 $

              AGP version a little more.

                I saw Monks post in the RON forum on the fact he couldn't run the game due to his graphics card....$20 for a GeForce 2 from EBAY? C'Mon splash out, the game IS worth it :O)

                        Yep, youre right, but which would you get, a 32 meg GF2 for $20 or so, or your ATI?


                        ....be honest now

                            Wasn't there a problem with "Alien versus Predator" needing a graphics accelerator card, which they forgot to mention on the box?

                            If so, I wouldn't be at all surprised if the onboard acceleration of modern cards is incompatible with whatever AvP needs.
