The Game Advisor will not run on my system. I get an error saying
"Unfortunatly we were unable to verify Hardware components of your system".
I just upgraded my video card from the Intel Intergrated video and this still
will not run. I just hate buying games, only to find I cant run them
correctly. Any Ideas?
 
Make sure you've gone into the BIOS and shut off the onboard graphics. If
you have additional information on the graphics card you bought, it would be
helpful, too. Make sure you also go to the web site for the card
manufacturer and download the latest driver. It probably is not contained
right out of the box.

I have disabled the Intergrated card in BIOS. The new card is a ATI Radeon
9250 w/ 256 mb memory. This would not work prior to the video card upgrade
either. In my BIOS I only have an option to use the onboard or PCI video
card. Yes, my new card is PCI. I did notice that prior to installing the
new card when I went to my BIOS that it was already set to use a PCI video
card instead of the onboard one. BTW, I downloaded the HALO Demo and with
my old card, I got an error from the game saying something like "were sorry,
your system doesn't meet min. requirements, run in safe mode." I selected
yes and the demo looked Bad compared to my Xbox version and the new card it
looks great. So I think the new video card is good. What would be a good
Demo to download to check it out (I have Halo set to the Max on video
options).
