I've looked through several threads, as well as the FAQ, but I can't understand any of it...All I got out of it was how to get my specs. When I check Shaders, I press okay, but (since I've never seen shaders, I'm guessing) shaders doesn't turn on. I go back to the options, and it's unchecked. I'm pretty sure my computer (laptop actually) can support shaders, since I can check everything else on the list and Toribash still works fine at 60+ fps.

That was manually typed, so if you see anything wierd, tell me. It's probably a typo.

Your computer CAN get shadders,but :
1) what version do you have?Maybe get 3.69
2) i have the same problem when starting toribash in school, but it is because
a) old version
b) it is not INSTALLED, i am starting it from mp3 player

I have version 3.69

whats your videocard? run dxdiag, click on display, and list the video card model, we can give you more info from that.

The video card's a NVIDIA GeForce 7150M

To get shaders working go to this thread:

There's a driver in there to make shaders work with laptops.

Which one should I get? The NVIDIA one? I'll go ahead and try that one...

Yeah the Nvidia one should sort it for you.

What do I DO with it? I currently have it installed, and I read the help file. The instructions part, and it didn't make sense. Am I supposed to browse for my driver?

Tell Windows you want to install a new driver & point it towards where it's unpacked on your hard drive.

Uh...I'm a dumbass >.> Could you spell it out for me? Step by step?
Where do I navigate to to find driver blah blah
