The manufacturer's website might also tell you what exact gfx card you have in your system, or you can get that information from the device manager from the System options in your Control Panel.

    The Comuter is threatening Taz to upgrade it, Taz must obey, he doesn't want to end up as a pair of smoking boots...
    so, i found my laptop on the website, organized the updates on what i needed....
    and they haven't had updates to the drivers for my model of computer since september of 2006....
    so what now? is there anywhere else i could find drivers that would work?

    ok, so i'm gonna come clean....
    i don't really know very much about computers, just the basics and what my brothers have told me. i looked up the drivers things, but i have no idea what to download-- i went on the ati website, and downloaded the driver, but it didn't work.

    yes. i'm retarded with computers.

    i'm actually running on a laptop (a Toshiba) right now. it ran the game great right before this last update-- i don't have any kind of video cards except for what comes standard.

    i'll try updating my drivers, and if that doesn't work, i'm sure i'll come crying back in a few minutes.

    so...
    no matter what i do, i still can't view characters or maps. when i log in, i can access all my different characters, but the characters themselves won't load. also, when i load onto the server, neither the characters nor the map will load. however, i can see the chat log, auras, and things of that nature.

    so far i've tried several things:
    messed around with in game graphics
    tried it on safe mode several times
    uninstalled then reinstalled both the game and the updater
    verify all the files every time i try to log on

    any advice on what i should do? it would be greatly appreciated. i'm at the end of my rope here.
