my bf bought me minecraft :) yea we're nerds
anyways, I downloaded it and it said my computer has bad video cards? The one I have currently is a Radeon Xpress 200M Series version 7.14, so I went to the ATI website to upgrade it to the 10.2 version. Proceed to download 10.2, and after it's finished opening Catalyst, it said I "do not have adequate software to run the program" or something similar, don't remember exactly what.
Can you help me with the new software?? I know where to download the video card drivers and all, but it doesnt work... if it helps I have a 2007 Toshiba operating on Windows Vista Home Basic 6.0
thanks!|||You likely either.
1- Don't have netframework 2.0 installed. (Catalyst control center relies on this, .netframework is software)
-Get it here http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyId=333325fd-ae52-4e35-b531-508d977d32a6&displaylang=en
-retry
2- You got the wrong graphics driver for your windows version, what I mean is that you may be using 64bit and you downloaded the 32bit driver.
- Press start and type dxdiag, it should tell you if you are running a 64bit operating sytem
- Download correct version
- Retry
Also, I have a 10 year old computer that can run minecraft without a hiccup.|||What it is telling you is the installed video card does not meet the games system requirements to run on your lap top. Always compare the games minimum system requirements to those of the lap top before buying and installing. The graphics/video card is a chip set made into the mother board and is not upgradeable or replaceable. It uses no software only the driver and drivers for other graphics/video cards will not work or install.|||With laptops its tricky, it might just not be good enough, and with laptops you can't upgrade any components to better ones, 2007 is a long time ago (computer wise) but there shouldn't be a problem unless its a really cheap notebook. Sorry but unless it has a good procesor and graphics card you might be screwed
