Re: is it possible to get BF2 to run on a GEforceFX 5200?
Possible, but it'll be slow and you have to run everything at LOW resolution (I've also disabled something to make it run bit faster, but can't remember what).Originally posted by koretex
I'm running it (sometimes, when I use that computer for gaming) at 800x600, and it's slow but playable. 1GB RAM, AthlonXP 2500+.
Ah, the card is [whatever vendor] Geforce FX5200 64MB.
Didn't do anything special to run the game, just installed mobo+gfx card drivers. -

Replace it with a card thats supported.
Radeon X700 (PCIe)
Radeon X600 (PCIe)
GeForce 6600 (PCIe)
GeForce PCX 5900 (PCIe)
GeForce 5800 Series (AGP)
ATI Radeon X800 XT Platinum Edition
ATI Radeon X800 PRO
ATI Radeon 9800 Series
ATI Radeon 9600 Series
ATI Radeon 9550 (RV350LX)
ATI Radeon 9500 / 9700 Series
ATI Radeon 8500 Series
ATI Radeon X300 Series
NVidia GeForce 6800 Ultra
NVidia GeForce 6800 GT
NVidia GeForce 6800
NVidia GeForce FX 5950 Series
NVidia GeForce FX 5900 Series
NVidia GeForce FX 5700 Series
while theres newer cards that arent on that list, you'll notice the 5200 series is not there. I'm sure theres some way to make it run... but is it really worth it?Comment

o trust me, it runs fine, if u got a 5200 made by PNY, its runnable, and its survivable, note: it makes about 18fps, good enough for me, i can run/shoot kill wat ever, so im happyComment

On 800x600 with less than 20 fps... I had the PNY 5200 and it could barely run BF1942 on high on 1024x768... no way in hell its running anything on high in BF2 with decent frame rates.Originally posted by alecs36Comment

FX5200 will work, but why don't you just download the demo and see for yourself?Comment

I play this game on Radeon 9200SE which is basicly the same as yours, all I can tell you is that you will run it everything on low and still won't get decent FPS.Comment
