video card support question : GeForceFX 5200

Hello everyone, I just got this game and I cannot get it to work right
with this video card. The game starts properly, seems like it will
work. I select new game; go through the menu options like it will
start. Then as soon as I get into the game, all I see in the main
screen is a dark to light screen, depending on where I turn.

I looked it up and this graphics card is supposed to work, can anyone
please tell me what options to manipulate (which are all in their
default setting), to get the game so I can play it.

Thanks,
Ryan

Which game? Try putting "safe_texture_manager" (without the quotes of
course) in your user.cfg file.

Hmmm, I'm not don't think it's the video card. I use the pci version of
that video card and it worked fine. What kind of proccessor do you have?
Does it have hyperthreading?
