I have a game called Might and Magic 7, but think my
graphics card may not be strong enough for it. How do I
see what graphics card I have?

If you are using W2K or WinXP youcan use a built-inprogram called DxDiag.
DxDiag is the DirectX Diagnostic Tool. You start it from the "Run" command.
If you look on the "Display" tab you will find the video card information
(it's under the "Device" header). Jeff

Matt, the game configuration tool will allow you to run in "hardware" or
"software" mode. It defaults to hardware. If that is giving you problem,
try "software." I have run the game successfully on XP. Be sure to download
the patches by running the game updater too.
