    Update your video card driver lol? It really told you what to do already. If you already have the newest driver perhaps try an older version possibly.

    I admit I did scan through the question to fast and didn't see his video card was so old but mmmmm I'm not so sure about that Curly. It probably is but I just looked at the requirements and 32 MB 3D hardware-transform-and-lighting capable video card. Yeah, but I would really consider an upgrade on your video card daothanhtoan.

    Buy another game not from the same shop and tell the shop keeper to replace it or give you back your money in case that doesn't work report the shop keeper to the police.

    What?? What does the shop keeper have to do with this? S3 hasn't made any new video cards for about 3 years now.

    Well the S3 is an ONBOARD chipset and halo is looking for a dedicated card, so an upgrade is the only route if you really want to play this game.
