Description
Game is successfully running under unsupported videocard(SIS M661FX/M661MX).
So, most of buildings are displayed incorrectly (screenshot attached) and sometimes the game crushes on window resizing with a lack of video memory.
It would be better not to run the game or display an inform message about an unsupposted hardware.

Thanks. Can you try changing some of the settings mentioned here? In particular, try setting renderpath=fixed
in your config file and let us know if the game becomes more playable. It may be that SiS card has buggy shaders, this setting will disable the shaders.

If you're very adventurous, you could try the latest drivers from the SiS download site: http://w3.sis.com/
The last that appears compatible with your card was updated around the end of 2010. There's no guarantee it will work, that's why I say you have to be adventurous ;)
Can you attach the
system_info.txt
from the computer with that SiS graphics card? It's in the game's log directory: GameDataPathsThat's a low-end graphics card but it might possibly run better with updated drivers (if available).
