[split] Troubleshooting Guide - Look here before posting! GeForce MX 4 - Scaley5 - 03-10-2011

My problem is when I launch it, I click the lowest possible resolution, and when I click Launch Game, it goes into fullscreen mode, I get a black screen, then it stops and crashes with a message that says "Amnesia.exe caused an EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION in module Amnesia.exe at 001B:0000000". I am using a GeForce4 MX 420/AGP/SSE2 Video Device. When I click Detect, my card does not show up on the list of possible settings, so it assumes medium settings. Does this mean my graphics card is too crappy to play? Please help me

A GF4 is below requierments to play the game, you'll need a GF 6 or better.

No idea, it depends on the hardware. Check the manual for what sort of expansion options you have and then search for cards that fit in those expansion slots. But most likely it is a waste of money as the computer must be old if it has an MX 4 and any potential card you can get is likely bare minimum to run amnesia.
