I have a Vista Toshiba laptop running on 1 gig on the ram and 80 on the hardrive. The graphic card is an xpress 200M. I am trying to play Genesis Rising but it won't load due to my card not supporting full screen mode or pretty much -- anything that's intense 3D.

The game tried to go through the window mode and it still didn't work. I tried to update my ATI card in hope that I could play the game but it still didn't work. I also tried to do some updates on windows and it still won't work. My ATI card also does not have any open GL. AGGGGRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!

- How can I tweak my graphic card or do any updates to at least play Genesis Rising?
- Is it possible to download an open GL for my graphic card?
- Am I the only one here having the same problem?
- ATI.com doesn't help much or am I doing something wrong?

Chances are you aren't going to be able to play many games with that setup, or at least not in very high quality mode.

You should install the official ATI drivers from Toshiba's website, which should have opengl support. I'd guess you can run some games if you just set the quality and resolution way down.
