Do you need to update your drivers??? if so what kind of graphics card do you have?

OR do you need to remove your graphics card and put a new one in?

So let me understand you correctly, you just want to update the drivers? YES?

Go on to the nvidia website (google it) and search under their "drivers" for 8500gt and ownload and install the latest one.

After you download the latest driver, go to Add/Remove programs to remove the current driver (should be under NVIDIA Driver). I also like to run Driver Sweeper after that. Then restart, and install the new driver.

By the way, updating your drivers won't help you much, with a 8500GT you probably won't pass low-med settings.
