If the card is not compatable. . . not sure what can be done.

I saw some "emulator" drivers for the late GF3 / early GF4 to emlate hardware T&L and shaders - they weren't pretty tho.

Is it not letting you install? or run the game?

run the game.

I might have a look for the emulators.

There are some programs out there for spoofing your graphics card, I found some when trying to get BF2 to work on my card. Afraid I don't have them anymore after I gave up.

You might want to try searching BF2 forums as they might still have links. Hope this helps

But remember how bad it looked Stuk.. To be honest I wouldn't bother trying after remembering Stuk's Beef-too... Everything was a bit pink, blocky and oh yes tanks were invisible?

Can you mess around with the config file and tell it what settings to use??
