re: Requirements

The admin is someone else on your computer, so whoever you live with, mom, dad, or whatever, ask them to bump your account up to admin and you won't have anymore problems.

re: Requirements

Will I be ok? Look at my sig for info. I mean BF2 as it is has to be run on Medium so I can play at 40 FPS at the most. Should I invest in another 7900GT and run SLI? I'm serious. Also should I increase my RAM to 1.5 to 2 Gigs? I'd DL the demo, but don't feel like waiting 6 hours.

re: Requirements

Thats really weird how you have to play BF2 on medium with those specs. Make sure your graphics card driver is updated and another 7900 isn't needed. One should be enough


You should be okay with running the demo. The game runs better than BF2 for me, quicker loads (Except the first one which is long for everybody) and ALOT quicker "Verifying client data". The only thing that ever slows me down is to many effects, I only have effects on medium but also I have that "special lighting effects" option added so that might be it.

Recommended has changed a bit though.
quote
In order to play the game at the recommended resolution, detail and performance levels, your computer should match or exceed the following specifications:

Operating system: Windows XP with latest service pack installed
DirectX 9.0c February 2006 edition (included)
CPU: 3.0 Ghz
RAM: 1.5 Gb
Video Card: 256Mb DirectX compliant video card, Pixel shader 2.0 and above.
Hard Drive space: 2.3Gb of space is required to install the game
Internet connection: 512Mb Cable/DSL connection

re: Requirements

Yes 512mb of RAM will still work on Low, but the "recommended requirements" are there to give you the best performance out of BF2, you don't need 1.5GB of RAM for it to work but its "recommended"

The more RAM
-The faster your load times
-The less stuttering you have (if any)
-The more memory so you may be able to bump up a setting or two.
There is a big, noticable difference between 512RAM and 1.5GBs of RAM when it comes to BF2 and BF2142

actually my computer only has one account which is the admin account. it isn't necessarily someone else.

i can't play this game because my computer doesn't have a DVD-ROM. i also have a VERY crappy graphics card but at least that can be upgraded for crying out loud!

also, i have an Intel(R) Celeron(R) 2.66GHz on my comp and it says on system requirements lab that its not powerful enough. wouldn't this be as powerful as a 1.7GHz Pentium 4?

re: Requirements

Laptops weren't meant for gaming. So there's no surprise there, if you want to play BF2142 then you're better off getting yourself a reasonably good computer.
