Yep, seriously, not a big deal at all, and definitely worth-while!

Thanks, guys. I was afraid of that, but at least I know not to scream and yell at Matrix Games for making a crappy product. I may update my machine, but then it's about 8 years old and I might just buy me a new shiny one. Any input on the video cards / capabilities I should be looking for?

Oh, and if anyone can think of scenarios that will work with the Talonsoft version in the meantime, I'd appreciate it if they dropped a line to me so I can add them to my stable of games.

Lastly, will the Matrix Games version generate battles smaller than "battalion"? I usually don't have that kind of time. Thanks!

As Scud had already stated, upgrading your power supply and installing a video card are pretty easy to do, if you do your homework right and get the right hardware.

About 4-5 years ago, I got away from my integrated graphics card and purchased a NVIDA GEforce graphics card that came with a lifetime warranty. In order to use the graphics card, I also purchased a new power supply that had the proper amount of watts to handle the new graphics card.

I purchased both from Newegg.com and based my chooses on the ratings and feedback from other customers.

Believe it or not, my graphics card actually went bad on me after having it for about 1.5 years and the manufacture replaced it for free with a even better model than I had. Other than that, I haven't had any other problems with either the power supply or the video card.
