ok, you've completely lost me.

I downloaded the intel graphic driver, I have plenty of space on my computer to hold the monstrous files the game comes with. after I log in, a window will pop up, completely blank, then after 10-20 seconds, I see that message.

I hate being one of those people that can barely work their computer. so since I'm a little slow in this area, could you kinda spell it out for me? please?

Do you have DirectX 9? Can your video card run DirectX 9? Is your video card PCI, AGP, or OnBoard? I think it's OnBoard and if it is... you need a new PCI/AGP/PCI-E video card depending on the architecture of your motherboard.

Fiesta requires a DirectX 9 video card and intel might not be the best candidate for that. My friend has a Radeon 9550 on AGP, if your motherboard has an AGP slot that R9550 card runs Fiesta pretty nicely! If you live in the USA it only costs about 80$ I believe, so it's cheap and it works great. Let me know if you need help determining your motherboard architecture!
