Upgrade your video card. What do you have in it now?

Here you will need this to help you get your foot out of the back of your throat, looks llike its in there pretty deep. And what is that on your face? Egg?! *hands Kim a washcloth*

Simply put your video card is too old to play the game, if by some miracle you did get it to work it would look and perform really bad.

I checked, and according to "DXDIAG" I have a NVIDIA driver...right?:

So I went to their website, and downloaded the latest driver for my model. Guess what? It couldn't find any drivers compatible! What now?

That is because it's from the last millennium (literally), you need something newer.

The bungie.net community is the halo PC community that is renowned for being unbelieveably sucky.

The nVidia website has drivers for your video adaptor. In fact, the mainstream unified nVidia drivers support your TNT2 model just fine. Any of the newer GeForce drivers will work.

Congrats, you've just illegally downloaded a game, and it won't work. I'm guessing you didn't have anything better to waste your time on?

Yeah I didn't even notice that he downloaded it. Go forth and procreate with yourself.

Yes, it's the trial. I wouldn't download the full game if I have it for Xbox now would I? Anyways, like I said I downloaded the new driver and it didn't work.

I will, however, try a different one.

Prepare to be flamed by saying xbox. These PC gamers here hate that word for some reason.

If it is wired then its plug and play. If it is wireless go buy an adapter.

I own an Xbox 360. Halo came out on the Xbox. Xbox Xbox Xbox Xbox Xbox Xbox.

As much as we prefer PCs over consoles, we're all gamers, no? At least we have something in common with the Xbox, over the dreaded Sony Playstation consoles...

Get Marathon Here
Get Marathon 2 and Infinity Here

TNT2? Hot damn that was back when VoDoo had the best cards on the market...brings back memories.

Get a new GFX card, if you have an 8x AGP slot, try and find yourself an old 64MB card, look for used nVidia GeForce 4 Ti series cards (NOT GeForce 4 MX!), for your generation of machine, they will blow you away (they are also best for Halo PC, nothing else on Earth can run Halo PC like a GeForce 4 Ti, try to get at least a Ti 4200 if not better).

Should be able to pick it up for 20 bucks, best investment you can make for 2001-2003 era games. Speaking of which, you should also get Aliens vs Preadator 2, best game in existence after Marathon.

Next naturally comes Halo.

No he said he downloaded the trial version. And i recommend you by it even though you have the Xbox version. Just, your system is REALLY old, buy a new one, and make sure it has a decent graphics card in it, if you ever want to play any new games.

Did you read his first post? He only said he had the demo after someone asked him about it. If he'd downloaded the demo, trial, whatever, he would have pointed that out in his first post. Not Hey, I just downloaded Halo for PC

I get the feeling he's BSing about the trial. But since I can't prove anything, I'm going to drop the subject.

Ugh.....if I all I want to do is play Halo PC online, then downloading the full game would be pointless. Anyways, I've uninstalled it from my PC so you all can just calm down now.
