[h8red85]

well, I have radeon 9600 and I still have a white/grey/black screen :/

[RaBidDoG]

update your frameworks.

[h8red85]

Yeah, I did that in the first place and I still get it. I found some thread about it which suggested downloading 2 dll files and copying them into the game directory. I did that and surprisingly the game works... but HORRIBLY slow, it's unplayable. Is there any other solution to this problem?

[h8red85]

bump.....

GeForce 6100 has pixes shader 2 so this list is not good

he probaly dont have the driver instaled at all or using some dell driver

in fact anything nvidia 5 (and above) series should work, my dell laptop has one and it odes not work with the dell drivers , you need to get hacked drivers from the net

note: although i see the nvidia 6100 was already removed for that list

[Fasm]

If only graphics cards were the only problem, just yesterday i bought an ATI 2400HD PRO (mainly for this game, but it was a much needed upgrade) and after much difficulty digging up working drivers i finally had it working!

Now that my graphics are awesome for the first time ever! I'm getting every connection error imaginable... 1000, 1001, 1002, 1003, 1009... -.-

I know this is off topic, but just beware that graphics cards aren't the only remedy to a fully functioning BFH.
(And if anyone knows a fix for these problems that'd be rad... and yes i do know their is hundreds of UNANSWERED forums complaining about these errors =P)

And thanks for the helpful thread, it helped me find out why my Radeon 9200 wasn't running BFH =D
Cheers!

Don't all Geforce ti4xxx cards have pixelshader 1.4? So that includes the entire range, not just the 4200, but 4800's as well. Other than that (if I'm even right...) Brilliant post!

[BattleFieldHeroX]

My radeon xpress 200 works great when there is no lag.

[twinkie94]

i have an intel r g965 graphics card and i get lots of dark colors in the game. any way to fix?

[ReddevilB]

I have a ATI 9600SE and it does support pixel shader 2.0... but the first time i started the game I get a blue screen of Death (Stop code..)

After upgrading the ATI drivers i just get a grey screen... so what to do to get this game up and running ?

[RadarNZ]

I have a Nvidia Ti4800 SE w/ 128mb GDDR memory, would that work?

[RaBidDoG]

Ti 4800 is like 7 years old..
no is the answer.

I think the SE is even 3.0. Anywhom, try updating/installing .NET Framework 3.5 and 2.0, as well as C++ redistributable. You probably have updated DirectX along with the drivers, but you can try that as well if you haven't already.

U f@ bstrds. U had me waiting fer so long and now dis???
the reason to run simpler graphics is to encrease availability
an then u put my graphic card on the not supported list!!

dont try to pwn ur consumers - its bleeding childish

[HouwndDog]

Pixelshader 2.0 is quite a basic thing on todays graphics cards... it has been around since 2001, so it is quite a normal compromise between graphics and compatibility.
