Agozer Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 The culprit isn't hard to figure out. No integrated chip will work with Chankast, nor any Dreamcast emulator for that matter. Well, some integrated chips from ATI and Nvidia might be exceptions to this, but I haven't heard any statements from people who own said chips. Chips made by Intel are exceptionally poor for emulation, and are considered the worst by many. The problem is Intel's chips lack hardware T&L support which is essential for Dreamcast graphics emulation. So, the easiest solution to your problem is to get a decent graphics card. It doesn't even have to be particularly powerful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonbon Posted June 17, 2007 Author Share Posted June 17, 2007 Thanks alot, but im really quite a dummy when it comes to graphic cards.. This is probably the end of my emulating career, unless someone in this lovely forum can help me out. How does this graphic mumbo jumbo work?thanks in advance Agozer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sturmvogel Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 It's pretty black and white here my friend. Your graphics card is **** and does not satisfy the requirements to run NullDC half decently. If you wish to continue to dabble in emulation, you'll need to buy a new computer with a capable graphics card. There's nothing to understand or explain. Period.

Bonbon Posted June 17, 2007 Author Share Posted June 17, 2007 so i need a whole damn computer? isnt a graphics card like, replaceable? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sturmvogel Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 You have a Pentium M, so you have a laptop? Except in rare instances, graphics cards for laptops cannot be replaced. And you have an integrated chip set to boot. So yes...seeing as its a LAPTOP, you can't replace it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you have an integrated chip set to boot. So yes...seeing as its a LAPTOP, you can't replace it.Exactly. a graphics "card" for a laptop isn't even a card per se, just a chip that connected to the motherboard. In most cases, the only way to remove an integrated graphics chip is to unsolder it. Not only does such a thing void your warranty, but it can destroy either the chip or the motherboard, unless you are very skilled in electronics. And it's not like you can just go to a store and aask for a new integrated graphics chip either. I refuse to call laptop graphics devices "graphics cards". On desktop computers, the graphics devices are *actual* graphics cards which can be replaced, because of the simple fact that desktop computers have more room for parts inside them.

They are used in some desktops. Call customer support or your manufacturer. Tell them what you want to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
