bluesjunior Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 A bit of help needed here guys. I am 58 and not so used to graphic cards etc. I have installed the full 1GB demo and it all seems to work ok apart from no 3D display on match. I can see the 3D buttons but they are greyed out and I cannot get them to work. I have only played the one game so far on the demo just to find out if I could get 3D. I played it full screen but wondered after reading a previous post wondered if it might be better on windowed mode. My PC is and AMD Athlone XP2400+, I have 1GB of RAM and my graphics card is an ATI Radeon 7500. The Catalyst Control Centre for the card has a 3D section which I originally set using the Basic setup as opposed to the advanced setup. In Advanced there are various parameters which can be altered. Before I try this though I would like if one of you PC literate chaps could tell me if my graphics card is less than spec for this latest version of FM. thanks in advance for any advice / help offered.

glamdring Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 I know very little about graphics cards, but I assume ATI Radeon 7500 < ATI Radeon 9800 so it won't work. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you run dxdiag and post the results in the forum then we may be able to tell you a little more. You may find it quicker to get a definitive answer in the Technical forum though.
