I just re-purchased halo PC earlier this month,and installed it.I knew I did not have the compatible vid card,but there was a possiblility that it would work.So i install it and it works.But everytime I click "Play" on the launcher it says:the vid card is not compatible.I continue anyway,but in single-player,the master chief is grey,the covenant are grey,and all of the computer guys on the pillar of autumn are grey.In multiplayer,evry1 is grey.Including me.I think this is a vid card problem but there are many reasons why it does that(like the color settings on the PC).I was hoping you all could help me explain what the problem is(i would like someone who has expierenced this before or is really smart with Pc's or someone with bungie).Oh and i forgot to mention,I have a Dell Dimension 4600 Desktop PC with windows XP home edition.

That happened to me once, and meanwhile i learned to play just buy the green triangles over my team8's heads ,:P lol...., but then I got another video card and it came back to normal, that's my case. In ur case, dont know, might be the same problem as me.

Manually download the 1.07 Halo PC patch here, and that may help you out.
