Check the system requirements (http://planeshift3d.com/wbboard/thread.php?threadid=21500&boardid=17) and make sure your machine can actually play the game.

?No Hardware Acceleration? usually means you either:

1.) Have very outdated drivers for your graphics card
2.) Have a very outdated graphics card, or
3.) Have a distinct lack of anything that could be considered a graphics card

Solve this by:

1.) Updating your graphics card drivers from the manufacturer\'s website
2.) Buy a new graphics card, or
3.) Buy a graphics card :P

Updating drivers doesn\'t require paying for \'em. This is a free download from the manufacturer of the card, in your case Nvidia. So head over to nvidia.com, and navigate to the driver download page, clicking on the appropriate choices for your card.
