Recently purchased DVD Medal of Honour Pacific Assault but game will not play as my computer video card is a GeForce 2 MX-200. What should I look for when purchasing DVD games? Am very new to this gaming business being an oldie!!!

According to this page, Medal of Honor Pacific Assault requires a 64MB Hardware Transform and Lighting (T&L) capable video card with DirectX 8.1 driver support (DirectX 9.0c is supplied on DVD). Supported T&L video cards: NVIDIA GeForce3 or greater, NVIDIA GeForce FX series, NVIDIA GeForce 6800; ATI Radeon 8500 or greater, ATI Radeon X300, X600, X800. Medal of Honor Pacific Assault does not support Windows 95/98/Me or NT."

When buying a game, check the box for "System Requirements." If your computer doesn't have everything listed on the box, the game probably won't run.

If the box lists both "minimum system requirements" and "recommended system requirements," it means that the game will run with the minimums but it won't run well or fast.
