i just need to know what game that can play with my graphic card
and i dont want to play any kids game and flash game.......

hi mate
you will be suprised to know that it was only around 1998 that video cards were using 16mb and 32mb and some games made in those days were some of the finest ever made
these include the original doom,quake,return to castle wolfenstien and hexen
the graphic card you have probally supports the direct x 7 version so this is were you should be setting your sights,infact you may be able to run some of the early direct x 8 games
i presume that your pc has a 1st generation agp slot such as the agp x2 interface and allthough there are many agp cards still around you may find it difficult to find one thats compatible with your agp slot
however why not sling the agp slot(and card) and buy a new(inexpensive) card that supports the universal "pci-bus" ,thats the white slots you see on every motherboard and allthough these have slower data transfer speeds than agp its still faster than the types of agp cards compatible with your specific system
as for a card there are quite a few decent pci(not pci-express) card,these include :
1) Zotac Geforce 5200 256MB( http://www.cclonline.com/product-info.asp?product_id=31553&category_id=127&manufacturer_id=0&tid=zt-52fpc2n-hsl),this has a 250mhz core clock and 256mb of gddr memory running at 333mhz
ok these are not going to break any records but they will be a massive improvement over your current card
2)however for a massive improvement check out the Sparkle GeForce 8400 GS 512MB - ( http://www.cclonline.com/product-info.asp?product_id=32327&category_id=127&manufacturer_id=0&tid=sf-pc84gs512u2lppassive) ,with over 40 times the memory size of your current card and support for direct x 10 this is a must if you want to bring your system a bit more up to date
again this is no speed demon but it has some acceptable specifications which i have managed to find a extensive list of these :
Manufacturer: nVidia
Series: GeForce 8
GPU: G84
Release Date: 2007-08-11
Interface: PCI
Core Clock: 567 MHz
Shader Clock: 1400 MHz
Memory Clock: 333 MHz (666 DDR)
Memory Bandwidth: 5.328 GB/sec
FLOPS: 134.4 GFLOPS
Pixel Fill Rate: 4536 MPixels/sec
Texture Fill Rate: 9072 MTexels/sec
as you can see for a pci based card they are not too bad,however i would say more emphasis should be placed on the support for direct x 10 and the shader model 4.0 compliance
there are other pci based cards worth considering and these include the nVidia GeForce 9500 GT PCI,however i have found only one manufactuer of this card and this can be found at http://db.jaton.com.tw/VGAProductDetail.aspx?P_ID=84498KDLP-T1A-LP
so there you have it,allthough your current card may be holding you back for a small outlay you can improve your games without having to totally upgrade your p.c such as changing your motherboard
any problems let me know
good luck mate !

I Just Love This Game

Even the Carmen San Diego are kids' games, adults can get a kick out of them. and get a geography, history, or astronomy education at the same time. At least this big kid fell in love with the series. And trusts you will, too.

There was first "Where in the World is Carmen San Diego?" ACME Chief (played by the dynamic Lynne Thigpen) sends you [gumshoe name inserted] on the hunt for suspected criminals who have stolen a significant artefact and have absconded to somewhere in the world.

You, as Carmen San Diego, must track by visiting a number of locations in the world, answering questions that will help you decide where you can acquire, in a mandatory order, the particular loot stolen, then the warrant for the criminal's arrest, then the criminal, whom you arrest to be awarded a higher rank and to move on to the next case.

"Where in the U.S.A. is Carmen" "?" works on the same above strategies and premises, as does "Where in Europe is Carmen San Diego?"-while "Where in Time is Carmen San Diego?" and "Where in America's Past is Carmen San Diego?" follow the same strategies but teach history at the same time as the player learns geography and while "Where in Space is Carmen San Diego?" teaches astronomy and some science, as well.

This game was also a television game show, with kids guessing clues, proving their finesse with geography, and winning trips to related vacation and tour sites in the world. Lynne Thigpen also starred as the ACME chief, and Rockapella sang a capella songs intermittently (they were awesome!), while guest stars occasionally popped up and mini scenarios entertained audiences at home. At the core of the game were three rounds-of a questions quiz; a simulated video process of finding the loot, getting the warrant, then capturing the fleeing criminal; and a map locations-finding challenge, wherein the final contestant (who had made it through the other rounds first) got to locate countries on a continent by running to them with a giant parking meter like marker, which lighted up when the player was right.

Evidently, the Carmen series, made by Broderbund originally, was based on a Broderbund founders' childhood game-in which they used an almanac and relevant maps to compete in quizzes. The tools and concept have been carried over to the CD Rom games, whereby kids are not cheating but enhancing their research and deductive skills by accessing a massive collection of facts regarding the world, history, the U.S., and/or Europe. A thrilling game series, really, of which this overgrown kid has played four different games and was hooked on the show when it was on years ago. I highly recommend any of the Carmen San Diego games!
