Later I went to check and see if I could download an update and so I went to look for my graphics card in control panel. I found it I think. It's called Nvidia Phys X. The weird thing is it acts like it's not there or turned off. It says "no ageia phys X processor installed under info and under settings you can pick "no acceleration" or "Ge-force phys X" or "ageia phys X" I can only choose No acceleration I later went to try the game again and now it no longer works. Someone please help me Have tried running DX Diagnostics; and under display this is what I got:  __________________________ Name: Manufacturer: n/a Chip type: n/a Dac type: n/a Approx.
