ATI 4850 HD unsupported?

It should work, as long as you've got drivers.. What problem are you getting?

These:

You card or driver doesn't support GL_EXT_compiled_vertex_array

You card or driver doesn't support GL_ARB_multitexture

You card or driver doesn't support GL_ARB_texture_compression

And then it says:

Detected video card or driver is currently unsupported ATI Radeon HD 4800 series.The game may run poorly or not at all with your current configuration.

Then a list with minimum requirements and advice to go to the Nvidia or Ati site to download the latest drivers. As I installed this card today and immediately went to the ati site to download the latest driver that can't be it.

My last card(which broke down that is why I had to replace it) was a Geforce 7600. I did uninstall it before installing the new card.

I'm not good at giving advice, can I interest you in a sarcastic comment?

Which driver package did you install? I've see errors like that before, and they're invariably due to an improper driver installation. Try the following.

Reboot Windows in to safe mode and uninstall your drivers.
Download Driver Cleaner (you can still get the old version 1.5 for free), and run int still in safe mode, to remove all traces of drivers.
Reboot to normal mode and reinstall your new drivers. Reboot again and try the game

Glad you got it working. Deleting and reinstalling the chipset drivers was the next thing I was going to suggest.
