Hi,
when I launch HalfLife 2, the loading screen appears, and after a while
(about 30 sec), my computer reboots from Bios.
My graphic card is : Hercules 3D Prophet III (latest drivers).
How do I solve that ?
Thanks for help.

Jack

Thanks, but this driver doesn't support my graphic card (which is a bit
old, okay).

Sure it does. You have a GeForce3 and the unified Nvidia drivers support
all of their cards all the way back to the TNT.

I forgot to mention, if you want to play a new game you have to use a new
video driver. That's the way it works.
