Well I solved my problem with the grey chiefs and painted ground by downloading the Intel Accelerator Driver, but now I wonder If I could take it further. Get the visor and the blood and bullets? Is there ANY way POSSIBLE in which I can obtain pixel shaders for my Intel chip?

If not, to heck with Intel and I'll buy a video card.

Sorry to say, no, but you can get a new GFX card for about $65 and play halo at max settings. i have a dell 2400 with a $62.98 gfx card and i play halo with no prob. also what comp. specs do u have? (what type of comp and whats in it?) and how much are you willing to pay? i will try to find a good gfx card 4 u. PM me.

P.S. you are right, intel sux ballz.

Quit being so cheap and get a new video card. I reccomend the nVidia 6600 GT, it's $125-$150 and it plays Halo on max easily.

That's a nice suggestion but my crappy comp doesnt have AGP. Im looking towards the Geforce 5500 FX PCI. Would that be good?

Em, for Halo yes, but don't spend too much money on it. Because PCI for graphics is dead already. Even AGP is dieing.

Also the AR is actually good in CQB now and no longer a glorified baseball bat.

Johnny, he said that he doesn't have AGP.
This is the best PCI card that I have found on the net.

You wont be able to get a good videocard for just regular PCI. The highest card they make are like the 5500's which still are complete crap. You'd be better off buying a whole new computer.

And btw whoever said you can play halo with a $60 card and have hte settings maxed is completely wrong. Try something more like $160 (and that doesnt even guarentee it)
