I have been told that in order to run a game I need to update the video driver on my computer, it has sufficient memory but just needs 'updating' how do I do this?

1. Download the new drivers from the vendor's site.
and place them in a temp. folder on your c drive.
2. Go to the windows control panel , and click on add/remove programs.
3. Find the current drivers in the list and remove them.
This will restart your pc and it will have a default vga driver from windows.
4. Go to the temp. folder you created and run the new driver applet. It will unzip files onto your pc, then run the installation,
and restart your pc. Then after the restart enjoy your new drivers.
This is the best way to do it in my book, since you are making sure all the old files are removed first.

To update the driver go to the manufacturers site for the graphics card. If it is the memory of the graphics card that needs upgrading you need a new graphics card.
