graphic card and ram problem

[pim1234]

i'm running bootcamp xp sp3
i bought a game but i couldn't play, i asked to the people who sold it, and my pc wasn't capable. i have the newest imac and this are my problems:
1.my mac has 8 GB RAM, on windows only 0.5 GB
2.they say i haven't got a graphic card, wich isn't true. do i have to buy a new one? and wich one? it has to be a geforce or a radeon.

what are the game specs and what are you system specs?

Erm... I'm not sure how "1.my mac has 8 GB RAM, on windows only 0.5 GB" could happen.

Hard drive space, or RAM? If it's RAM and you're running it in Boot Camp and not a virtual machine, both should be able to access to the 8GB of RAM that it has. (Actually ~3 GB if you are running Windows ~ 32 bit.)

on bootcamp i can't get internet... mi use vmware... srry i didn't told that

Bootcamp is not vmware. Bootcamp is where you boot the entire machine into Windows. VMware is a virtual environment for running Windows inside OSX. You are not going to get access to your graphics card from within VMware.

Let's try to fix your Boot Camp issue.

Have you installed the Boot Camp drivers?

Boot to Windows Boot Camp.
Insert OS X Snow Leopard disc.
