    Could you stick a link up for that lappy? And it's very probable that the game will play, the x1700 is a decent card. Also Rainbow six is quite old (If i remember correctly...) and this might explain the lack of an x1700 card being in the supported list on the back.
    I've never really played the rainbow series though. How advanced are the graphics in Rainbow 6?

    Should still play fine. If it is a 6 month old game there is no way that a x1700, that was considered a mid range card, can't play it.
