LOL.. no, you can't download a video card! Don't worry, you just learned something new today
Your video card sounds like an integrated graphics card - Whether this is the reason your game doesn't run I'm not sure. I haven't played WoW but I'm sure it's very graphics intensive.
My suggestion? Invest in a graphics card.
Edit: Note to self - refresh before posting a reply.

ok you can maybe try this...

click start...
click run...
enter (with quotes) "dxdiag"
click display
Look for DirectDraw Accelration and Direct3d accelration...check if they say enabled. If they are disabled click the enable buttion beside it.

If they are both enable the buttion that say test...
hope that helps.

Well yea what your going to pay for a decent video card is around $200 to $300. Mine cost $375 cnd. The $50 ones are about the same or worse than you have now.

I guess its just my shitty computer*no name computer* cuz all my friends have dells that have RADEONS....

Sorry for double posting but i wanna know if this Video card is good.....

Hrmmmmm i guess im not getting a reply..


plzzzzzzz anyone.... is this good?

thats good enought for latest games

but its AGP... you sure you pc has AGP or PCI

Radeon sux
J/k  the brands aren't the problem, i think Nvidia and ATI are good enough for this game, i have a GeForce 4 MX440 and play fine the game, also another friend of mine who is also sticked with NVidia and is using a GeForceFX 5200.

EDIT: Check for this, go to Start Menu -> Run...
then type "dxdiag" and press enter
go to the display section
check if direct3d acceleration it's enabled, if not do it.

yes the 5200 is easily good enough to run the game, you might have to have the setting relatively low but im sure you will understand if you dont want to pay a lot. im sure you do have an agp slot unless your pc is really old. but if you are in doubt run sisoft sandra www.sisoft.com which will tell you if you have one though im sure you do.
the 5200 will be fine and is a directx 9 card.

tbh i dont know any canadian components sites to look at so i have no idea how much it would cost. but is the 70 canadian dollars for that 5200 on ebay a lot??? i dont know.
well any pc older than 5 years might not have an agp slot but what windows version are you running and are there any stickers on your pc that say intel inside on them and then the processor???

ok, i jus had a quick glance at ebay canada and i found this card
Radeon 9800 Pro

i have a radeon 9800 SE which a crapper version of the Pro and i have to say its a good card

yes that fine anyting will do really a 9800 would be great. personally i would go for a radeon card as they work better with world of warcraft which is what you are going to be mostly playing. im sure you can get something very good for 180 canadian dollars.

Mmk.... one last questiong will this http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&cate...em=5223086959&rd=1 fit in this

Here's a tip: want people to reply to your posts? Don't end them in "plzzzzzzzzzz" or "plzz help me!!!"

Oops sorry, I deleted my post to make a small edit and repost without having the "Edited by" line, oh well, at least you quoted it.

For starters, WTF is up with the large amount of spaces.

Checking if you have an AGP slot requires you to open up your computer, and from what I've seen, I think you should probably take it in to a store and have them check for you :\
