VGA Drivers?

January 13, 2007 5:40:39 PM from GalCiv II ForumsGalCiv II Forums
I recently got the game but it says I need more up to date drivers. It'll work fine up to the point the game starts then it just shut down. Does anyone know where and how I download VGA drivers?

I have a hp Pavillion ze4300 laptop w/ Windows Home Edition
ATI Radeon IGP 320M

This is the place to go (download Radeon Omega Drivers 3.8.252 (Catalyst 6.5), unpack, install, reboot). It's the best you can get as support for older chipsets has been dropped from ATI's drivers as of the last couple of revisions. Omega drivers are modded versions of ATI's Catalysts that should work on any IGP/Mobility chipset.

Be very certain you get the version I mentioned, 3.8.252. Your video chipset is NOT supported in newer versions.

A word of warning: the 320M is well below the game's minimum requirements. Even with the updated drivers, you will most likely experience poor performance and issues such as flat-shaded-only ships (missing textures).

I went to the Hp web site and a tech gave me the link to updated drivers. The game runs just fine now, even with all the graphic options turned on. Guess I really didn't need a NASA super computer and the blood of a virgin after all.

Oh, you will... you most definitely will need that and a bunch more... like maybe the blood of twelve virgins (they have to be blonde, did anyone mention that to you?)and enough hard drive space to keep your criminal record once you sacrifice the little bimbos.
