I would like

I would like to buy FM 09 but im afraid incase i spend 30 pounds on a game that won't work on my pc =/

download the demo mate

What he said. If the demo works on your pc, then the final game will too.

did said it couldn't open graphics somthing

yes but theres problems with the demo just now

What error are you getting?

did said it couldn't open graphics somthing

That suggests your graphics card isn't up to the job.

I have AMD Athlon series 200 1.99GHz and 1.5gb Ram

You posted in another thread what your graphics card is yet i have that one and directed you to a place you can update your driver which you seemed to ignore. So i would download what i suggested then see if it starts because FM definately works for me on my machine with same GFX!

you said you have the ATI Radeon Xpress 200 series GFX

Lawl Typo and i have no internet at the moment moving house on my friends computers

Could sombody help please

PGB_SPURS_FM09 has told you what to do. Twice.

I know but i can't i have no internet at the moment im waiting to hear if my Graphics cards good enough to play just text cause thats all i use never liked 2-d or 3d

grrrr =[ Damn

He's answered that aswell.

FM works on his PC with the same graphics card as you. You have enough RAM and I would guess that your processor being fine also although I don't know much about AMDs. I would try the demo before buying to make sure.

Hmm i did the graphics file won't open but i transferd the files from my friends house to my house on a Cd so i dont know

ATI Radeon Xpress 200 series i Done that Diaxag thing and it said i had a ATI and not an AMD lol sorry guys could SI tell me it the ATI would be good enough to play atleast text commentary ????

Had the same problem as the OP. Solved it with this thread: http://community.sigames.com/showthread.php?t=55372

Hope it works for you too.

I have the same graphics card and had the same problem. I then downloaded this:

http://game.amd.com/us-en/drivers_catalyst.aspx?p=xp/integrated-xp

and it worked.

If you can't download that wait until there is feedback on the patch to see if it works and then buy the game if it does.

Wait a few days after release and pick up on the word on these forums. If there's a whole bunch of threads about how people can't install the game/run the game then I would steer clear of the game (if I couldn't run the demo off course). Check back once in a while to keep track of patches and see what they fixes.

EDIT: Off course try the troubleshooting these guys have suggested and see if you can get the demo to run first
