    (assuming you have Windows XP)
    Try this :
    http://www.s3graphics.com/en/drivers...aspx#id_420drv

    Version:6.14.10.0033-13.94.33 WHQL CERTIFIED for 8D04

    But you have to know that even if this updated driver provides GL 1.2+, you card may still be way too slow for anything playable.

    EDIT : apparently, this game can not work with your video card.
    Unless you have a laptop, try to buy any video board from ATI or Nvidia. Even an ancient geforce will do, check the system requirements for your game.

    EDIT2: GL 1.1 only for this card : http://www.kludx.com/card.php?card=21
    Search for GL1.2+ here :

    Thanks for reply. I already tried downloading the 6.14.10.0033 but it still doesnt work. I guess i have to buy a graphic card driver at computer shop? as in bringing my cpu there.

    You mean just "buy a new graphic card" (drivers comes included in general, or from the card make website).

    When you fixed it was it for this game? I have to agree with Zbuffer, if you want to play Secret of the Solstice you need a better graphics card. I had a similar problem not too long ago and was better off switching to an NVIDIA card. You will not be wasting your money.
