Bought a new high spec PC for the kids for Xmas. Tried to install Zoo tycoon 2 for them ALL SEEMS OK TILL THE END OF THE INSTALL WHEN THE MESSAGE COMES UP "ZOO TYCOON 2 DOES NOT SUPPORT THE VIA KM400 GRAPHICS CARD" If i've bought this game and can't use it on a new PC i'll be amazed!!None of the other games Simms etc are all fine. Can anyone help?

I'm in the same boat! According to the listings on the box my system should work--but I'm also gettting the "doesn't support video card" response. Help!

I AM GETTING THE SAME ERROR MESSAGE, IT IS REALLY FRUSTRATING. I TRIED DOWNLOADING DIRECT X FROM MICROSOFTS WEB SITE, BUT NO LUCK. MY COMPUTER IS ONLY 4 MTHS OLD, IT DOESNT MAKE ANY SENSE WHY IT DOESNT WORK AND THE STORE WILL NOT GIVE ME MY MONEY BACK BECAUSE THE BOX IS OPENED. MY KIDS AND I ARE REALLY UPSET. IS THERE ANY OTHER WAY IT WILL WORK??? >:( ???

i posted a reply somewhere else in regards to this issue. I ran into the same problem, and found a way around it (I looked online and found the solution) Open up the zoo tycoon 2 folder on your hard drive (not on your cd drive)Look for the text file, open that ...in the text it lists several video cards. I scrolled down until i found mine, deleted the line that said unsupported card. Resaved it, and then the game runs fine. Ive not had any other problems. According to where i found this advice, it has successfully worked for several people. Hmmm...microsoft in kahoots with the graphics card companies maybe? Obviously the game runs fine with my card.

dude your going to have to get a new card. sams club has one for 89$ works great with the game it is a geforcefx 5200 the reason the one on your computer is not working is that it is built in to the mother board with shared memory i have a via 400 also and had to upgrade
