does this game not run with a RADEON at all?? or is there away around it??

Here's Murphy's law in it's purest form>>> I bought W&W and a 32MB Radeon VE video card ON THE SAME DAY. I can't return(nor do i want to) the Radeon because i bought it on ebay.

I haven't installed the Radeon yet and i'm hooked on this game.
When someone says this game doesn't support Radeon, what exactly does that mean?
Should i not install the card yet or is their a way around it??

Hi joay!

It means you will have to run the game in software more rather than off your vid card. (these choices are on the computer options screen within the game).

So if your game runs on your current video card you may want to wait until you finish OR - you can check out how it looks in software mode (I'm quite happy with that myself) and continue your game that way.

thanx Wyv,

i'm playing in software mode anyway, i guess it isn't a problem putting the card in.

I also use, and prefer, software mode.
