Is there anyway to make this work on my computer without getting a new graphics card. It says I need a new one no matter how old of a version I use. I can't get a new graphics card either.

The following cards are NOT compatible with Second Life:

* NVIDIA cards that report as a RIVA TNT or TNT2
* ATI cards that report as RAGE, RAGE PRO, or RADEON 320M, 340M, 345M, or similar model numbers
* Intel chipsets less than a 945 including Intel Extreme
* Cards with the following branding: 3DFX, RIVA, TNT, SiS, S3, S3TC, Savage, Twister, Rage, Kyro, MILENNIA, MATROX


You may have a bit of a problem getting that card to work.

As I always say: You're SOL with that one.

Consider tho- $50 to $500 for a new video card, OR $400 and up for a new computer.
