Graphic Card against PoP WW, please help me!

[inheaven]

so, I got a brand new pc to my work (p4 3.00gh 512mb ram bla bla bla)...

my graphics card is an Nvidia GeForce 4 MX 4000.

I bought my favorite game (hopefully), which is Prince Of Persia: Warrior Within...

But, my vga card does NOT support Pixel Shader...

Anyway, the game plays excellently till I kill the bat-guy... When I get into the next room the game just crashed with the following message: Game Ended Unexpectedly, please read the ReadMe.txt file

or with a wonderful, BLUE screen on my winxp pro pc... :(

Anyway, I just can't go through that point and when a friend of mine told me to download the 3D Analyzer and patch the pop2.exe file and click on pixel shader menu. then I get the message: you need to start princeofpersia.exe to play, so I patch the princeofpersia.exe file, run the game, and I get again the same message: Game Ended Unexpectedly, please read the ReadMe.txt file


need help... :(

and please don't tell me: buy another graphic gard...

I also had a Geforce 4 MX and instaled POP SOT ,and had graphical problems and crashes.I ignored the game and a few days later i intaled a nother one and also had these problems.So a decided to buy a new graphic card Geforce 4 Ti 4200 and everything runs fine.I'm sorry to say you that you have to buy a new graphic card to run these games fine,because Geforce 4 MX don't support pixel shader and today all new games can't be run without pixel shader.

That is for Sand of Time he is talking about Warrior With In I'm not agree the first POP requieres pixel shader that true but can be make to work with 3d analize anyways and Warror With In was made to work with the gforce 4 MX series (requieremnts were lowered) I have the same graphic card a Geforce mx 4000 and the game works fine with it i don't have any crashes maybe his problem is something with his drivers, direct x or some program conflicting but there is not the card and 3d analyze is not necessary for this game sicne the pixel sahder is not a mandatory requirement like Sands of time
