Brian check to see if your computer has a PCI-Express slot. If it does than
you can get a new video card to install and it will override the integrated
card you currently are using.  The 7950 is a good one as is the 7800 series
and the 7600 series is too.  These will all run your Battle for Middle Earth
Game as well as any other graphics intensive video game especially if it is
designed to be played online.  Also remember that size is important too so
be sure your case has enough room for a new and substantial card to be
installed in the PCI-E slot.  Open your case and check it out.  If it is a
tight fit because your case is a mini case or is a slim design one you may
need to get another card that may be slimmer in size also. One that comes to
mind is the one I currently use whish is the ATI Radeon 1650 PRO but since
you are using Windows Vista you might want to check out ATI's web-site ( www
ATI.com ) and see if they have drivers now out to make their cards compliant
with Vista.  I know this seems like a bit overwhelming but with a little
research and a good eye ball estimate of your space to install a new card
you should do just fine.

I have a nVIDIA 6150 integratd card.  I was thinking about getting the 7950
GT.  Is this a good card?
