You could download the demo and find out.

Hiya Matt, good to see you back :)

Unfortunately, that card won't work with Ship Simulator.  It's very old now and the MX cards were cut-down versions of the GeForce hardware.  I would suggest getting at least something in the GeForce 6 series, higher if you want to really appreciate the full impact of Ship Sim :)

I would also avoid the LE range of cards, they are similar to the MX cards of the past ;)

I suspect that if you try the demo as suggested, the game won't even run.

Regards.

DJM.

Hi, Matt, chances are you didn't fully delete the demo.

Try looking here for it:

Start -> Control Panel -> Add or Remove Programs -> Ship Simulator 2008 Demo. Then reinstall it.

Alternately try here:

My computer -> Local Disk -> Program Files -> Vstep -> Ship Simulator 2008 Demo.

Thanks!
