trying to play Halo for pc, it says my 32 m S3 ProSavage video card won't work, outdated ddi file (ddi 7? I think). Do I need a new card or can I update the driver from some website?

Hi
Try updating your driver from the manufacturers website (not sure whare it is but you should have the documentation?)
Failing that try here:

Good luck

Does Halo support the VIA/S3 Prosavage at all? I am just checking the Microsoft website to see if your Prosavage will work with Halo-nothing there says anything about the Prosavage.
Halo requires a 32mb video card that supports hardware transform and lighting, which the Prosavage would not have.

So I need a different video card? I wasn't sure if updating the driver would fix the
T&L problem. What I read said Halo supports certain cards but others might still work, so I thought I'd try. Any ideas on what card I'd need?

Here is what Microsoft supports for Halo:

Go for a ATI 9800 or a Geforce FX-but if your system doesn't have a AGP slot, you might be able to buy PCI version of ATI/nVida card
