I just bought Prey (it's only 5 bucks today on Steam)

When I click to launch Prey, it says that The current video card / driver combination does not support the necessary features.

I haven't changed anything in a year, and I played CSS and HL2 just fine last I checked. I looked for new drivers on www.asus.com but there isnt a newer video driver.

any ideas?

Try updating your video card and CPU drivers... I had a similar issue/error when trying to play Frontlines:Fuels of War. After updating the game started right up... Has something to do with multi core CPUS.
