| 729982 | 2008-12-17 02:25:00 | I have a Compaq Evo D510. When my son tried to play a game Team Fortress 2 with Steam, he got a message said "your graphic hardware must support at least pixel shader version 1.1 to this game". what could I do to fix it? where should I start to check something? Thank you in advance. Larry |

| 729984 | 2008-12-17 02:30:00 | you could try update the drivers. But I suspect the graphics hardware is too old | utopian201 (6245) | ||
| 729985 | 2008-12-17 02:31:00 | Type AGP 4x - integrated Graphics Processor / Vendor Intel Extreme Graphics Video Memory Shared video memory (UMA) That appears to be the graphics card in the machine you have, I'm not sure that has any support for pixel shader 1.1 at all. Is this the first time he's tried to run a game on the machine? |

| 729986 | 2008-12-17 02:33:00 | it sounds as though your gfx card doesn't support shader 1.1. had the same kind of problem, racer driver grid installed on PC but wouldn't on laptop saying "your graphics card does not support shader model three" |

| 729987 | 2008-12-17 03:15:00 | Well, the convertable tower or Small form factor probably has integrated Intel or NV MX400, neither of which is very good for games... The driver for the graphic may just be the microsoft windows driver instead of the fully fledged driver from the manufacturer, so go here for the latest...Compaq D510 drivers for XPP (h20000.www2.hp.com) Have a look under system>device manager>what chip you have and download the drivers, however I doubt it will do much good. The D510 is a business computer, not built for media or gaming. |

| 729990 | 2008-12-17 03:44:00 | Its would be smarter and cheaper to buy a new one IMO | Blam (54) | ||
