UT2003 Build UT2003_Build_[2002-09-13_17.31]

OS: Windows 98 4.90 (Build: 73010104)
CPU: GenuineIntel PentiumPro-class processor @ 902 MHz with 126MB RAM
Video: Intel(R) 82810 Graphics Controller (2641)

Your graphics card is not supported - please consult the FAQ

History: CheckDeviceCaps <- UD3DRenderDevice::Init <- UGameEngine::Init <- InitEngine


So, is this the end of Unreal Tournament 2003 on my computer, I hope not, I am really looking forward to playing, but not if it doesn't work. Will I have to buy a new video card?
My computer is only like a year old, and I just installed Directx 8.1, if that means anything to anyone.

I would appreciate any and all help.
My apprehension is growing exponentially

You should really buy a new graphics card, the one you have.... isn't even a card... it's just a chip set on the mother board, and it isn't very good. I heard you can pick up a GeForce2 for like US$50 now if you shop around, that's what I have, and the game runs great.

Yes, if your PC has a AGP expansion slot, get a new video card. You could use a PCI video card too, but those arent as good.

Thanks for the replies, guys!

So, from what you're saying, the only option that I have is to buy a new video card to go with my hp pavilion?

Well, I am in a financial constraints at the moment, so I guess I can do without the demo for the time being...
I guess I will practice some more with the old Unreal Tournament...
Anyone have any suggestions for some very interesting maps that may hold a tab to the quality of the maps on UT 2003?
Again, any help would be greatly appreciated.
