i got halo for the PC but i cant play it. Everytime i try it says the my video driver is know to have serious issues with the game.
My question is what the hell is a video driver and how can i get a new one?

A video driver is the software that 'translates' outputted graphics to your video card. You can probably download a driver for your video card off the internet, but you have to know what type of card you have.

What I think you mean is that you have a bad video card, which is probable for Halo since it needs a better video card than what normally comes with a new computer. Try a simple Google search for video cards or go to your local computer/electronic/whatever store to buy a new one. Some well known video card companys are ATI (Radeon), nVidia (GeForce) etc.

I have a nVidia TNT2.
So your saying i can download a new video driver from nVidias website?
But does the video driver have to corrispond with the type of video card?

You can download it from their website, and it does have to correspond. Just got to the site, click downloads or download drivers, select your driver and platform and you can download it.
