Graphics Card Upgrade Issue

[Legio]

Hi, I recently bought M2TW Gold Edition and installed it.
I have all the recommended system specs, except for one- when I tried to play by double-clicking the icon, I got an error message saying that I need pixel shader 1.1 or higher.
The graphics card I have is Intel (R) 82845G/GL/GE/PE/GV Graphics Controller.
I searched on the internet, and found this link.

Will this give it the pixel shader 1.1 or higher?
Or do I have to buy a new graphics card?
If so, can you please point me to a link for that new card?
Thank you in advance,
Legio

I just looked it up on Intel's site and they don't support them anymore and I can't find info on it past that. I'd try it. If your chipset doesn't support it now, I don't believe it will. If it doesn'y work, then I'd be looking for a card.

if it doesnt have 1.1 then its not even a graphics card, i think even the geforce 3 and lower had shader 1, if so it will be onboard graphics, save up and go out and buy a gfx card, problem solved, but usually onboard graphics and graphics controller comes with laptops, so have alook on the site where they sold you it and check to see if you can upgrade it.

Thanks Irishron and Martin N, I iwll try the download now. And the graphics card I got is the one I still have with the comp.

It doesn't work.
Now I have to buy a new card.
Oh well, I have more than enough money, I just need to persuade my parents to let me!
