Pirates and Video Card Help with Purchasing

[zzzzzzzzzz]

I am looking for a video card for my computer. Looking for a 128 mb PCI card. I heard Nvidia is a good card, but I want to make sure that it is T&L compatible. The rest of my specs meet the requirements for Pirates. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I have an Nvidia FX5700LE OC with 256MB DDR from BFG (http://www.bfgtech.com/) It runs things Like Counter-Strike Source/Half-Life2, City of Heroes without Glitch or error. CS:S Runs at about 90fps
It is a T&L Compliant card and is readily available

Depending on the money you want to invest.... you might even look at the new 6800 (http://www.bfgtech.com/6800.html)
but those tend to get a tad pricey and usually require a Powersupply upgrade as well

Thinks for the post.

I was hoping for an easier solution and a less costly one. I think I will just work on getting my money back and returning Pirates!. There are lots of other games.

Yeah, same problem here, my game boots me out so often it,s given me a sore ass, Electronic Boutique does'nt want it back either, so I'm in the same boat you zzzzzzzz. wasted money.
If I buy a new car I hope they dont expect me to rebuild the engine before I can drive the bloody thing......
Notso Jolly Roger. Happy new year sid. :down:
