pixelshader is something your graphics card either supports or doesn't support. The only way to get or update it is to get a new graphics card that supports it.

Email me for info on how to get a free ipod. No BS and totally legit and works!

Hi,

The GeForce2 MX 440 doesn't support any Pixel Shader...
The only way to get it is to buy a new videocard, you should get one with atleast 128MB.

i dont know what slots you have in your system for a video card, but ill assume its agp 8x. Check to see if you have a pci-express slot and/or agp 8x. Anyhoo, for 104 pounds you can get this awesome card. http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=14-145-107&depa=1 . This site only delivers to america, but you can probably find one outside of america. It also has pixel shader 3.0 so you should be good for a while. if you have a pci-express slot, you can get the same card but in a pci express version, which is cheaper.

Hey guys,I have 2 questions:
1.Does anyone know if there is a way to start splinter cell 2 in safe mode?Coz I got Prince of Persia 2 and at first it was not running but suddenly it started on safe mode and it works!!!But I can't get Splinter Cell 2 to work coz of the pixel shader.
2.Do you know any new game that doesn't need pixel shader??

BTW,I have a laptop,452MB RAM and ATI Radeon IGP 340M card.
