=\ Well, I just bought GW, and even though I know my computer's crappy, I can't get through this. Everytime I open the exe file, it shows a popup about my video card being an unsupported hardware device.
I know that DirectX might not work, but when I try to get ATI or GeForce, it would not let me install. Anyone know how to help this noob?

If DirectX isn't working at all, you can't start up the game since it uses DX commands to control vidcard and other hardware. I don't understand what you mean by 'trying to get ATI or GeForce' either...

More info on your computer would be pretty useful too

This is the most that I could get out of my computer info, since I'm not really that smart with it.

Intel Pentium 4
1.60GHz
256 MB of RAM
And I use DirectX 9... O_o That's about all I know... Would an older version of DirectX work? I heard that 9 isn't compatible with GW...

how much does anybody want to bet me he has intel integrated graphics instead of a real card?

your only choice may be to add a cheap video card.

it is compatable with direct x 9.
