So I haven't been able to play yet.

I am able to start the game, I select new game, pick everything, it loads... and then my computer has a fatal error, and reboots.  I'm not sure what information I need to post, but the error signature is

BCCode : 1000007f     BCP1 : 0000000D     BCP2 : 00000000     BCP3 : 00000000

I'm thinking it's the video card.  I think a Geforce 6800 is the minimum needed.

Thats aid, the rebooting means there's something really really bad with your hardware going on.  Your drivers look okay to me.  What OS is that?

Yea, dude, you may want to update that video card.  What kind of computer are you running?  If its got a 6200 thats what 6-7 years old?  Might be time for a complete update.
