For me, after the frusturation of figuring out how to get my Fable: The Lost Chapters game to work for my computer I figured out my video card Geforce 4 MX 440 wasn't supported for the game due to the lack of a pixel shader 1.1...
My solution is to buy a new video card for my computer but the fact is-
Im a 14 yr old with no ways of even getting/buying a video card....
But I was wondering on the fact if I can some how import a video card from my Xbox to my computer...
Would that in any chances work at all?
If I can't is it probably because the video/graphics cards used in a xbox/ps2 are used differently then?
If there is a chance it can work can somebody post a tutorial on how I can do this?

You can't do that. First of all, Xbox, IIRC, doesn't have pixel shader. Just because the game works on it, it's most likely specially engineered for the Xbox. Everything inside the Xbox is all on one board, with no way to hook into your PC, so you cannot do that, unfortunately. Let alone, get custom drivers.

I'll sell you the same card the Xbox has in it :P I've read it's simply a Geforc2 GTS

That's exactly what it is, I didn't think that had PS 1.1, does it?

If you go back to post #4 of this thread, you will see that I had already stated the following:

The Xbox has a GeForce 3 class GPU, which supports Pixel Shader 1.1.
