If I use 3danalyze for emulating H&L and pixel shaders, will it harm my PC in any way. I had heard that it may destroy the Graphics subsystem. I have got onbard gfx VIA unichrome 2

I dont think so, it doesnt interfere with your graphic, just fools the game right?

emulating pixel shaders.........hmm, well last night i tried to emulate Pixel shader 3.0 on my FX5200 (pixel shader 2.0) & ran Splinter Cell: Chaos theory.
However it still detected i have pixel shader 2.0.
But i did enable pixel shader 3.0 in NFS:MW and enabled the rain splatter, shadow detail effects!!!

oh.........forgot, it does not harm ur gfx system

I think the rain splatter effect needs just ps 2.0 which your 5200 already has.

Any ideas on how to play Colin McRae 05, on Compaq M2000 laptop.
it has the foll. config---- M/B- 82852/82855 GM/GME Gfx. Controller., 256MB RAM, XP Pro.

when i play the game it shows "gfx. Renderer not found", i tried many setting in the 3D Analyze v2.36b, but no luck.
when using the 3D analyze, a error pops-up, showing "Protection Error". But i've a ORIGINAL DVD.

its mostly for the ppl who have onboard grafx and cant play new games becoz of hardware restrictions . So almost everyone with decent computer config but no proper video card should give it a try.

well, even i'm confused........can u emulate pixel shaders on a card not supporting them??
can u fool a game in thinking that ur card has HDR support even if it doesn't??

Well U can fool teh game into believing but say the game only supports 2.0 shaders and u have 1.x shaders then yes the game will run but what u will have instead of textures are white blocks but all voices.
Tried it for myself
