My Problem:
I am having an issue playing battefield 2 on my pc with a Radeon 9250 Graphics Card. When i go to play, it gets throught the into and stuff then my screen goes blank, and all i have is music and a cursor. Then my VPU Recover kicks in and says something to the effect of my processor stopped reciving data from the driver. When i go into the Easy Info before i launch the game it says that i ahve 128 MB of video ram, but after i launch the game, it says zero after i have ctrl-alt-deleted my way out of them game, witch than my pc's display is at 800x600. If i try to relaunch the game, it comes up than goes right down. I know that it said on the game that i needed a 128 or higher and an ATI radeon 8500 or better. Well what is the prob? I tryed to see if it needed new graphics drivers but ATI's site is usless... Thanks for you time and attention to this matter

You could use a new GFX card, but your big problem is your RAM. Get at least 1gb...

Re: Battlefield 2 Graphics Problems.

It said on the box at least 512 system ram, i mean i can upgrade... I dont want to spend the money however. I just bought the graphics card like 2 weeks ago, no way i am going to spend more money to make one game work.

Suspect you went to best buy/circuit city and bought the card?

Anyway you could return it? Very, very, very bad card.

Re: Battlefield 2 Graphics Problems.

Just about any game you get from now on will require 1 gig of ram, so you may as well get it now.

If you bought a 9250 for two weeks ago, then RETURN it immediatley! It's probably one of the worse cards you still can buy on the net right now .
