Hello,
we have bought Wildlife Park2 and after installing the game, it doesn't
appear to play- it comes up with an error message saying "minimum shader
requirements cannot be met (vertex and pixel shader version 1.1) , the
programme will close"
Have tried emailing the software helpdesk for the game, but no reply.
Any suggestions what we need to do?
 
Hi Liz,

How does your video card compare to WP2's minimum requirements?

Here are a few ways to identify which video card you have
installed on your computer.

1. Click Start / Run / type: dxdiag
Click the Display Tab
Look under Device for the name and manufacturer

2. Click Start / (Settings) Control Panel
Click Display
Click the Settings Tab
Click the Advanced... button
Click the Adapter Tab

3. Click Start / Run / type: msinfo32
Click on the + Components
Click on Display to see the name on the right

4. Use Belarc to see indentify your Video, Chipset and Motherboard:

5. Get the information from the manufactures website (or store)

6. Look on the Video card itself if you plug into a card, or

7. Look in your Motherboard manual if you plug into the
on board video built into the motherboard of your computer.

Hope that helps you identify the make and model of your video card,
and afterwards, Try updating your Video drivers using these steps:
