what card you got?
cos i got a GeForce 4 MX 440, and SCPT didnt support it, so maybe SCCT doesnt either
i think it might be the whole MX series actually

Yeah, I have the same problem...except that my computer doesnt' have an AGP or a PCI-Express x16 slot. Which means that I have to save up for a new computer. So, I have to purchase a new computer along with a new graphics card. Fortunatly, my birthday is coming up so....
I am personally going to get the GeForce 6600GT. I've heard many good things about it.

thankxz,
get that Graphics Card outta ya system right now, if i were you!
Integrated Graphics cards are rubbish, ESPECIALLY if the case has "Dell" on it
go for a name brand like ATi or GeForce, they're the top two competitors, and you can get a decent card nowadays for next to nothing

You'll need a motherboard that supports AGP 8x or PCI-E get a 6600GT or 6800GT. No point getting anything less. I'm on a Xp2800+, 6600GT With 1 gig pc3200 system and the game runs sweet.
Just make sure you have a good PSU, one that has seperate 5 / 12 volt rails. The psu needs to support 18Amps on the 12volt rail to support a 6600GT / 6800GT card. Otherwise you'll end up with all sorts of strange problems.
