Deus Ex Alpha

Everytime I start any of them up via Steam the screen enlarges and freezes. I waited half an hour for it to load but it still wouldn't. I then pressed the off switch and it came on but froze and shut down. I repeated the same thing again and again and it still happened so it is not a one-off.

Can someone help?!

Erm, what graphics card do you use?

I think it's a Radeon 9200SE but when I play CS it says "Video Drive Outdated"

Right goto.....

Control Panel > System > Hardware Tab > Device Manager > Extend Display Adapters > Right Click Radeon 9200SE > Update Driver

Then try it again, hopefully it will work

Did it work by any chance?

Just for future reference, when you have a problem like that and it gives you a legible error message you should probably try finding a solution based on what the message says. I'm sure you know what video drivers are.

Well, I upgraded it but it needs to be upgraded again and I don't have a windows update to do that. =( I guess my comp has had its day. It had its day when I started playing DX actually.

Post your comp specs and we will have a look, also post your os as well.

Tant, my pc was made when DX sp was released -.-" How do you think i feel.

Do you have files waiting to be written on to my DX CD? Can you access your documents? Is your computer worth £50 now because of all the viruses embedded onto it? Do you have a McAfee that can't protect you from a pop-up? I thought not.
