    Haven't recently, but I got pretty into it for a while. The Desert Warfare mod is really cool too; you should definately check it out. You can purchase it or download it for free I believe. But I definately know why you're interested in the vid-card now. What kinda card are you running off now? or is your video setup integrated?

    You can get the Desert Combat modification from here:

    Great mod but make sure you have the PC power to run it. It's a little more rough on your system than just a strait game of battlefield 1942. I'm running a 1.3ghz cpu with a GeForce 2 64mb agp video card and I have to turn a lot of my video settings way down....although I don't notice much difference in quality it does take it's toll on your PC power when you turn up the settings.

    Your video card is full? I'm not quite certain I understand. By full you mean over-worked?

    The video card, is the device which typically plugs into an AGP slot (or PCI on older machines), then has a line-out to the monitor. Other machines have what is called integrated video; meaning that there is a chipset on the motherboard which contains the memory etc... for video functions.

    Typically, a seperate video card is more efficient than onboard memory (which often borrows from your ram), but neither have any permanant storage capacity.

    As a side-note, the computer the card I'm giving away used to be in was an XP-1700 (MSI Ultra motherboard and 256 DDR 2700 ram), with a 7500 rpm 40gb WD hard drive (2.5 meg cache), and it ran the game with most of the settings maxed out; so the card can definately make a difference. Heh, just to plug my giveaway [:D]
