not quite even a newbie

Post by jopedder »

I aspire to be a noobie, but can't get off the ground. Having downloaded vega from sourceforge I can't get the program to load. I keep getting:

Couldn't initialize video bpp 32 depth 24: No video mode large enough for 1024x768

with a series of other bbp and depth numbers. No matter what I enter as the resolution in vssetup it comes up with the same errors. Is it just that my computer isn't powerful enough for vega? I am attempting to run it on a netbook after all (acer aspire one)

help appreciated

Welcome jopedder which model of the aspire ie how fast is the CPU and what does it have for a GPU(graphics) and how much memory you are not the first to try though but i honestly do not think that it has the resources to run VS so that it is playable sorry but our older version may run.BTW which OS do you run.

Enjoy the Choice :)
