What graphics card do you have?
If you don't know, post the infolog.txt file in your C:\program files\spring\ directory.

maybe it is not clear that with "driver" we mean "graphic card driver". the next release uses more verbose error messages for this, including "graphics card driver".

No, its not. A Geforce 4 MX is considered minimum.

NVIDIA TNT2 is too old for Spring. I know, I tried.

AGP cards are becoming rare and therefore more expensive than PCIe.

If you want really cheap, I suggest buying a used card. You will get a faster card for much less money. IIRC the fastest AGP cards available are X1950 XT and Radeon 3850.

Or, you can get a new Radeon 3650 AGP for ~80$.

That is impossible to say, but if you got the TNT2 AGP version it should be compatible. TNT2 is also available as a PCI card. If this is what you've got, your computer is completely obsolete - Don't bother upgrading it.

ouh..
you should not get a too good card then, or he would start playing other games aswell.. tie him to spring, and get the minimum card Auswaschbar suggested ;-)
