Click on the driver tab and note the driver number.


When I got here there was a button already there which was for searching for an updated driver>When I did this it said there was no driver available that was ant better.


That only searched your hard drive, you have to go to the website of the manufacturer and download the update.

Right thanks for all your help but I'm just gonna leave it for now because I'm a lazy sod plus i'm using my brothers computerHopefully I'll buy the full game when I save some money and buy my own computer.I'll be back for some advice on what computer to get when I have some more money but until then what would be the best game to get for online play using my ps2(a racing game of course)

Yep sounds to me as though you are using onboard Graphics
(you mentioned Sis)

You will probably have to inest in a Graphics card before you can play - don't worry not too expensive

For the graphic card driver all I can find is "Plug and play monitor on Sis"followed by a code


I think this indicates it's likely an SIS integrated solution. Does GTL require a DirectX 8 compatable video card?

Not sure if SIS made/ make any DX8 integrated video cards...

EDIT:
DOH! too slow

I think it mayyyy be compatible with integrated cards, but since you have this problem it looks like it doesn't work with your card!!

You can pick a cheap graphics card up from eBay easily enough.
