I recently went to target and bought Battlefield 2 thinking it would work on my computer, but no. I tried to return it to target, but even still no they would not take it back, but exchanges the copy with my old one, and it still does not work on my computer. I bought it for $40 and I'm just trying to get rid of it so I'm willing to sell it to anyone for say $25. It's new, a day old, no scratches, nothings wrong with it, my computer just doesn't meet the graphics requirement or something.

why not buy an old used video card. it cant possibly cost that much to make battlefield2 work on ur computer.

I'm just not that dedicated to the cause and would rather just be rid of it..

what do the system requirements say on the box??

You know what, I'm not finding requirements on the box, I opened the box to see if this version would work, hoping it was just the last game, but nope. The requirements that EA has listed on their website are :Windows XP (32 bit version) with Administrator rights.1.7 GHz or faster processor.512 MB or more RAM.Supported 128 MB video card with the newest manufacturer drivers.CD Version, 8x or faster CD/DVD drive.DVD version, 8x or faster DVD drive.2.3 GB free hard disk space plus space for the Windows swap file and save data.(I figured I had all of these because I've never had an issue with new games before, and I had the other battlefield games, but alas it is my computer)

all you need is a dx9 based video card

I have no idea what that means...

u need a direct X 9 capable video card. so depending on how old the card is, you may not have that capability. list your computer specs for us.

just wondering...but does BF2 run good with only 512 RAM or should that be beefed up a little bit to run smoothly

when i had a gaming pc, i had 512 but soon upgraded to 1gb then to 2gb...definitely makes a difference as well as the type and speed of the RAM...

for battlefield 2 you definitely do not want any less than 1gb of ram ... if you can swing 2+ then your load times are bearable or non-existent.
