I was given the game Medal of Honor Airborne for Christmas. I installed it
and when I went to play it I got the message (The video card you are using is
not supported). Is there a easy solution to this ,or do I have to invest in a
video board to play this game? Thank You!

======================================
Maybe a video driver update would be worth a try.

Go to the support website of your video
adapter's mfg. and search for WinXP drivers.

If you don't know the make and model of
your video adapter...check the documentation
that came with the computer.

Also you could try these steps...
Go to...Start / Run...type...
msinfo32 ...press enter.

On the System Information screen...choose...
Components / Display...

You should find the make and model of your
display adapter as well as the driver version.

If the driver on the support website is more
current than the one you are running...
download it and install it. Also you should find
installation instructions at the support site.

Good luck.

get the same message. (The video card you are using is not supported). Thanks
