Welcome Techiotaku’s this post is dedicated to all those poor people like me who are unable to play games which require a graphic card or a GPU to start with. well let me ask a question ? do you want to play GTA San Andreas or The Matrix:Path of Neo ? well if you have a pc config like i have with Pentium 4 ( 2.4 GHz) and 64 mb intel onboard graphics and 1 GB DDR RAM ,you cant play The Matrix: path of Neo ,so what to do now,when you cant afford to buy a nVIDIA graphic card and still yearned to play such games..well TechiOtaku is going to reveal the secret.
The secret is a software called 3D Analyze,it’s basically a graphic card emulator.
3D Analyze
It is a powerful application that allows to play many DirectX based games using video hardware officially unsupported and theoretically unable to run these.If your video card hardware features don't match DirectX based favourite game's minimal system requirements - you can look for those reading on game box and/or game readme.txt file - try to emulate those "moving" your graphics board into minimal category necessary to play it. Following main 3D-Analyze settings to check if you want emulate a DirectX version starting from previous one.It basically emulates the verter shader and decreases pixels in order to fulfill Graphic card requirement.

Amazed ain’t you.? so many games…well you can get 3D Analyze from hereNow let us tell you how to use it…
Download the software and install it in any directory,and launch it.
Now click on “select” button and open the .exe file of the game which you want to play
Now in the Vendor ID enter 4098 and in device ID fill 20040,which means it will try to emulate ATI Radeon 9800 pro.
Click on run and the game should start.
well you can play most of the games in the above list with experimenting yourself and ticking the options in 3D Analyze.
For more details watch the video and comment if anything goes wrong.
Update you cant run NFS prostreet or Shift with 3D analyze.
