    If its a standard voodoo 2, you have 12 mb video ram. GTA3 requires 32mb... I am surprised it runs at all.

    I know it well, mate, but it ignores the fact when running with my 8 meg onboard! so i thought there might be a workaround.

    You are a potential poster child for that Save the Geeks thingy, if I'm correct.

    Is that an AGP card you need or a PCI?

    If you dcide to get a new video card, I have noticed a lot of PCI 64MB and up ATI cards around at local computer stores in my area.

    They are usually fairly cheap too
