You have arrived at this page because your video driver requires an update. Some drivers that ship with Windows computers have either no support or only basic OpenGL 3D support or contain bugs and therefore need to be updated to get the full feature set required for our games. You will also get the best performance and latest features from your video hardware.
Below you will find links to the download sections of several video hardware manufacturers. This is where you will locate the appropriate driver for your video hardware. Please perform the following actions:
- Note the indentifier below (provided in-game by your video hardware)
(this will be "not supplied" if you came to this page manually, see below on how to identify your hardware)
- Locate the same manufacturer from the list of links at the bottom of this page
(if your string starts with Microsoft, look after that. For instance "Microsoft Intel" is Intel hardware)
- Click on the appropriate link and locate the necessary driver update for your hardware
If you don't see your video hardware manufacturer below, please contact our support staff and we will try to assist you. Please provide as much information about your system as possible.
Note: If your video hardware is identified as "Undefined" or "Not Supplied" below, then you can determine the manufacturer & model of your video card by performing the following actions:
- Go to: Start Menu->Settings->Control Panel
- Select (double click) 'Display'
- Select the 'Settings' tab
- Click on the 'Advanced' button
- In the 'Advanced' window, select the 'Adapter' tab
- Note the information provided here
