    OK, downloaded metro 2033 and am trying to play it on m11x r2.... upon starting im getting an error saying the graphics card is not supported. I went to the control panel and made sure that on both steam and metro exe the high performance option was selected.....

    any help here?

    How does your R2 handle it might I ask? I plan on buying Metro 2033 soon.
