Hello, please help!
On installing Medal of Honour AA the game doesnt work due to an OpenGL problam. According to EA this is due to the ATI graphics card driver in need of updating. I got the new driver from the ati web site but when i run it it says that the driver update isnt compatible with the graphics card installed on my system ?? My graphics card is a ATI 128 Rage VR AGP.
Does anyone know where i can get the updated driver from ?

Well I have a couple of questions. Are you running XP? What driver & version did you download from ATI?

Okay, first things first. Let's make sure that you have DirectX 8.1. Click "start", then click "run" and type in the box "dxdiag" and then click "OK". What does it show as your directX version? After that click "start", click "control panel", double click "system", click "hardware", click "device manager", click on the "+" sign, right click on your ATI Rage 128, click on "properties", click on "driver" and what does it show?
