BF2 works fine, So doesn't BF1942 and 2142, so if you can't get it to work, then it's a problem on your end. There is even threads in htis group about some odd behavior people are having with it, but it defiantely works. How about you give a list of games you're wondering about. Also, how about some system specs But I'll give you the list of games that I've played for at least 1 hours, in most cases, at least 3-5 hours FEAR and FEAR XP(version 1.07 and 1.08) Battlefield 1942(1.6) and Desert Combat Battlefield 2 (1.41) Battlfield 2142 (patch 1.10 and 120) Warcraft 3 (patch 1.21) Doom 3 (1.2-1.31) Halflife 2:EP1 Counter-Strike 1.6 Counter-Strike Source Dawn of War: Dark Crusades Age of Empires 3, only played like 1 level of that though (no on-line play). Far Cry (1.4)and Far Cry 64(1.32) Quake 2 (later patched to 3.20) The girlfriend has played The Sims Life stories SIMS2 Hoyle Card games Mahjong Masters If I can find my DVD, I believe Lord of the Rings, Battle for Middle Earth 2 will work.

| | Re: Ok so can some one just post a WHOLE list of games that work w There is a new set of nVidia drivers out, I would start with them. Vista has really smeared nVidia's good name in terms of driver support. Even the new 101.41 drivers are beta, so you're mileage may vary on how well it works. Also, sounds like you're right at the place where the videos play. I'd try going into \BattleField2\Mods\BF2 and renaming the movies folder to see if that gets you to at least to the login screen.

I can assure you that while those drivers will work for basic things, those are not ideal for gaming. Heck even the Drivers released yesterday are not 100% perfect yet. Though I see alot happier nVidia owners from some of the posts. Not that the HP PC with the 7300LE is for gaming, but if those drivers are that old, I'd expect your drivers to be equally outdated.
