Subject: RE: Tech: Help! Graphic Drivers. Where are they?
Hi, WHB-
this page should help you quite a bit.
Note the "Extreme Trucker" system requirements, though:
- Windows XP/Vista/Windows 7
- 2.2 GHz CPU
- 1 GB RAM (2+ recommended on Vista)
- 1 GB HD Space
- 256 MB graphics accelerator (GeForce FX or better class, ATI 9600 class)
If you don't have that on your machine, you're screwed. I barely have that on the Windows 7 computer I bought two weeks ago.
The requirements for "Long Haul" are a lot less: - Windows® XP/Vista
- Pentium® 4 1.4 GHz or 100% compatible
- 256 MB RAM
- 540 MB Hard Drive Space
- 64 MB AGP DirectX® 9 and T&L compatible video accelerator card
- DirectX 9.0c or later (included)
- DirectX compatible sound card
- 8X CD-ROM drive
- Keyboard
- Mouse
MMario's succinct instructions are correct, but we can talk you through it in more detail if you need help. I really enjoy the challenge of getting games to work on a computer, but then I play them for five minutes and get bored. I got stuck on one, though - "Bejeweled 2." I play that one over and over. I think it's because I can listen to music and do other things while I'm playing...
Good luck.

Come to think of it, I'm supposed to be working on installing an experimental version of the Digital Tradition on my computer. So far, I'm stumped. But hey, I haven't given up yet. But maybe I'll play just one game of "Bejeweled" before I get into it.
