Heya Guys,
I'm new here hello.gif

I've been having a problem and am seeking some help.
The thing is I reinstalled Windows some time ago and since then I'm having problems with games.
Eg NFS MW, Halo etc wont run.
I checked out systemrequirementslab.com and it says that I dont have "Video HW Transform & Lighting" which is required to run the game.
The thing is i've played the same games before on the same pc before the format.

My chipset is a Intel® 82915G/GV/910GL Express Chipset
Any other info which I must provide please tell.

Thanks

*Did you reinstall the chipset and mainboard drivers that originally came with your computer?
*Did you reinstall your video card drivers that came with your computer?

Remember that all your peripheral drivers were wiped when you reformatted.

I didnt have the original driver cd so I downloaded it from the manufacturers website,My video card is onboard

Make triple-check on that; sounds like your vid.card drivers aren't performing. Also, go into the BIOS and check that it is set to proper specs for your chip and memory, and the FSB is set up to proper speed. You didn't say if you reinstalled clean from a standalone XP disk or from a factory image disk, but the image restore disk (if that is what you used) should have reset everything back to the day you bought it.

Well I used Everest Home Edition to find out my chipset.
And yeah i did a total clean install from a factory disc.
