Problem when playing games
View this Thread in Original format

Hi all, looking for some help. Ive got a radeon 9200 graphics card, 1.8ghz, 512mb ram. I'm having real trouble playing games, the main problem being that i can't! I can access the main menu and go through all the options, but when i click on "start game (or whatever) the game just closes down and brings me back to desktop, happens everytime without fail. I have downloaded the latest drivers and i just can't seem to figure out the problem. A bit of a n00b with comps so be gentle with me :p Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers

definatley a graphics card problem mate.. you got the latest chipset drivers installed (motherboard agp drivers) what motherboard have you got? You might have to go and update them - also it's an idea to upgrade to direct x 9 (or whatever version it is now). Often there's a 'setup' application in the installed games directory where you can set up your graphics card from that.
