Okay so I was looking at the specs for Guild Wars, cos I wanna play it and it says "ATI Radeon 8500 or GeForce 3 or 4 MX with 32MB of video memory".

So I looked to see what graphics card I have...and all it comes up with for display adapters in the device manager is "SiS 650". Is that my graphics card? Wtf is that? I'm guessing I don't have the right thing for this game then? ;__;

Yes, it is an integrated graphics card. You could try playing the game on it, but I would suggest looking into upgrading.

SiS 650 Oooooo nasty. *shudders*

It's a crappy intergrated graphics card with very little 3D power. If you just want something basic to run a certain game, get a Geforce FX 5500, or similar, which will cost about £40.

Heh heh. I had a SiS 620 on my last machine, which SiS stopped supporting several years ago. Also, they came very close to liquidation.

Radeon 9800 == <3
