Sounds like graphics card drivers tbh

dirtyscarab · November 4, 2009

Can you take a screenshot and upload it? Like KOP said it sounds like an incompatible graphics card problem unfortunately.

It would be easier to advice if you gave some more information about your computer.

*****willowlfc***** · November 4, 2009

well i've obviously looked at the help for it and found nothing on this topic as you probably couldent yourself , mimland what do you need me to do exactly ? i can remember once i pasted all my computer info on here and got help that way with Fm09

mimland · November 4, 2009

Computer specs. Processor, RAM, graphicscard, windows version. You can find the information by going to run in the start menu and type dxdiag. Then click on save all information and save the txt file somewhere easilly found. Copy the information in it down to the 4 first lines of display device and paste it. You can leave out the first couple of lines as well and start with operating system.

Found your dxdiag by looking through your previous posts. Did you get more ram for your computer like was suggested in the other thread you opened? Frankly your computer isn't really good enough for fm if the dxdiag is anything to go by. You either need a new computer or some serious investment in upgrades is needed because your processor,graphics card and ram are very poor by todays standards.

For anyone thats interested here is the dxdiag file that he posted.
