How to play dragon age origins without a video card?

I want to play dragon age origins without a video card because i don't have one any help would be appreciated oh and i have a vista by the way.How to play dragon age origins without a video card?
Rute is wrong, not all PCs come with graphics cards. Many desktops come with just integrated graphics, but those are chips, not cards.



The system requirements are very clear. If you don't have a graphics card you can either buy one or get a video game console. The game is best on PC according to about every critic, so go for the first option. There is however a third option, which is don't play the game at all.
For Vista, you need at least a mid-range graphics card. Integrated chipsets on the motherboard (that provide your video output if you don't have a graphics card) just don't have enough graphic power to keep up with this game's needs. You'll either have to add a graphics card (if there's a slot available) or get a new system.

u must be referring to using on board graphics rather than an after market video card. in that case i can tell my old pc running nvidia 6100 on board (built into the mother board) graphics are not suitable to play and thats about as low as it gets for mother boards nowadays. now the one i recently built has the intel G41 onboard graphics and that plays it beautifully. the biggest things you need to worry about is how much ram your onboard has and the pixel shader. you want 3 for the pixel shader but can get away with 2. and im usinf 1024 MB of video ram the closer you get to that the better. graphics cards are cheap now so if you have to get one the minimum is a nvidia 6600 and you can find em for less than 20$ if you have a pcie slot. i would install it try it on low settings and see how it goes.
*facepalm*



Of course you have a graphics card. You can see whats on your monitor cant you? Then you have a graphics card. Computers dont come without them.How to play dragon age origins without a video card?
