Joint Operations - Any PCI Video Cards Work?

[Guest]

I only have PCI slots available for a graphics card. Has anyone tried a
card made for a PCI slot with Joint Operations? The game requirements
mention AGP, but I was wondering if anyone had any luck with a PCI
slotted card.
Thanks.

There isn't any reason why a PCI card shouldn't be able to run any modern
game. (Other than the fact that those PCI cards may be years out of date
and not have the required processing power.)

The two solutions: Get a better computer, or swap the mainboard with one
that supports AGP or PCI-E. (Max cost should be $300 for this change, but
you will have to spend extra to get a decent video card.)
