Okay, I have a bit of a problem. I have a bad graphics card, an intel extreme graphics 82945G card. Obviously I cant even run shaders 2.0 atm. i dont have enough cash for a new card atm.
I heard that i could do something low cost, but i want to know if its at all possible.
By updating my firmware, Can I use shaders 2.0 on this chipset? (82945G)
Please dont laugh at my ignorance, i mainly concentrate on other hardware. btw, i only just stepped up from a pentium II so, umm yeah. you get the idea.

thanks ComputerGamerGeek, but as I said i upgraded.
(pentium D 3.40gHz dual core 64 bit, 1gig ram, 160gig HDD, SATAII, 128mb integrated intel extreme graphics <<the downfall, 18x dual layer dvd burner, NZXT trinity case, Realtek HD (hi-def) audio, 19"wide lcd)
