hello, Im having problem running GuildWars. Im using Cedega Trial. Cedega prompts that my Video Card is not supported but according to this page: http://www.guildwars.com/faq/default.html there are just some issues...
The problem is that when Cedega prompts that my video card is unsupported, I choose Yes to continue. the screen will be Black, and there will be a huge brown Cursor on the upper left side of the screen and it just stuck there... then I have to reboot.

I use method 1 in this howto: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=75074

My PC basic specs:
P4 2.0ghz
784ram
128mb GeForce FX 5200
80gb HD

maybe because Im using Cedega Trial? or I did not installed GuildWars directly from CD. I used the client file that Guildwars site provide. I think its around 40mb after finishing the downloader

Edit > Configure Profiles
or you can right+click the game launcher in Cedega then edit profile.
