oh and my car..Card name: NVIDIA GeForce 7025 / NVIDIA nForce 630a

 

[mcnumpty23]

are you using the onboard graphics and not a seperate graphics card?

if so you will get severe lag

 

[amilcar96]

Im not very good with computers what does that mean?

 

[mcnumpty23]

onboard graphics are far less powerfull than a seperate card

download gpuz and it will tell you what your graphics are

ok this is what i have, could you help me? I dont know what any of that means

 

[mcnumpty23]

that shows its onboard graphics

the box to the left of close at the bottom where it says geforce 7025/nforce has a little triangle

can you press that to see if it also lists a graphics card as well

 

[amilcar96]

Is there anything i can do..the website said i can run it easily. Could you go on teamviewer or something pelase. id appreciate it alot

 

[mcnumpty23]

dont know which website you checked

but if clicking the tab where it says geforce 7025/nforce doesnt list another graphics card then you have little or no hope

of playing that game even at lowest settings and a low resolution

it is a desktop pc not a laptop?

 

[amilcar96]

i went on canyourunit.com and yes its a desktop pc

 

[mcnumpty23]

can you look in device manager under display adapters to see if one or two are listed

can team view--but you shouldnt really let some one you dont know access your pc

if windows 7 right click my computer then click properties then device manager then expand display adapters
