Vampire and my Video Card

Alrighty, curious about something. My video card SHOULD be up to date enough to play Vampire Bloodlines. I don't know why it can't, but that's why I'm here.
My Specs-
2.16 GHZ (almost twice as much)
MSI Nvidia Geforce 5500 (note: it said it supports all the geforce series)
512 MB ram (the recommended)
DirectX 9.0C is installed
Any thoughts? Can my video card run it or is it too old?

i can't see your video card being the problem as i run it off an intel extreme chipset and they are useless. have you got any other programs that may be conflicting with the game (such as norton antivirus - my brother has had loads of probs with various things when using that)? i do find that to stop vampire from crashing a lot i have to disable/exit all background applications, but i always just put that down to the fact that intel extreme is so bad.

I have norton, but it isn't installed. My system put it on their automatically.
Let's see, what happens is, it boots up fine, and the sound plays, but I get no visible screen and my monitor turns off as if it were on standby.

Is your disk scratched?

Download the latest drivers at nvidia.com.

meh, latest drivers were downloaded, and the disc isn't scratched at all, but I gave up on it for now. I'll just get a new copy here soon (this one is used, got it from a friend).
Oh well, I'll get a copy to work eventually.
