Question Regarding Radeon Mobility and Omega Driver

kemet64 · Jan 25, 2004, 12:42 AM

Okay, my laptop has a radeon mobility 16mb graphics card in it. I want to play star wars galaxies but it requires a 32mb video card.

Is it possible to work if I install these drivers, meaning, will it make the computer think I have a 32mb card?

Which Mobility chip?
The drivers support M6 and up.

And no, a driver will not "virtually" upgrade de memory, remember that the memory in the card store textures while the game is running, if the game uses high resolution textures only, then it will not work, only if you can lower the texture quality you can get away with it. Also try raising the AGP aperture to at least 128MB.
