However I there is no red color at all. Everything else seems to work normal. I haven't tried any games yet tho. I have a AMD Athlon 3200+ machine. 2 GHz processor. 2 gig ram. Im using a Gigabyte K8 Triton K8NSNXP motherboard. Any idea why there is no red color here? I have downloaded updated drivers from nvidia.com as well. all help appreciated,

This really sucks cuz the game could run a lil smoother on the laptop. Well it's been like 4-5 years since I got a new computer apart from the laptop so I ended up ordering a whole new desktop machine online. Here are the specs. Vanguard should run fine on this one right? Intel Core 2 Duo Game-X PC Intel Core 2 Duo E6700 2.66GHz 4MB S-775 ASUS P5W DH Deluxe I975X S-775 4GB DDR2 PC6400 800MHz Corsair Twin 768MB ASUS GeF 8800GTX DDR3 PCI-E 320GB Maxtor 7200rpm SATA2 Windows Vista Home Premium 64bit (DK) Creative SB X-FI Xtreme Music Really looking forward to getting started on Vanguard. This is gonna be KGBs next big faction!!!

Check for bent pins. I typically run DVI to a LCD flatscreen, so I avoid analog connections if at all possible.

The ONLY thing it doesnt have is DX10, and the ONLY reason it doesnt is so MS can rip you off for 300$ for a Vista that was designed to please Big Media, and Big Hardware. (ie: it runs like shit). /rant off But yeah, XP64 is the way to go.
