No, the program in my extra tells you about your hardware.

You may have an unsupported video card, but until one knows what it is, I can't say.

That card is about seven years old. It was just above middle of the range in 1998.

Therefore it is pretty much unsuitable for today's games. In fact it is listed as being unsupported and if if it could run at all, you'd see a very blocky display.

I strongly suggest considering upgrading to some brand new hardware/new computer as that system is as a whole pretty much unsuitable for today's games.
