Hi,

Im not 100% sure but you may need a better video card? I think a 16Mb card is minimum spec.
Someone else might be able to tell you more.

My</a> box says:

Minimum requirements:
Pent II 400 CPU
64Mb RAM
3D Graphics Card with 16Mb RAM
(8Mb only if using Voodoo2)

Although I have heard it works on some other 8Mb cards, but definately not on all.

Hi

I got same problem! The read me file that came with the disc says Matrox G200.....that's what I got.................. but I got 8mb too. I seen the faq on 'avon' he reckons his 8mb card works fine!!!

Anyone using this? (yeh! it's old, I know!!)
Anyone know the fix?

Will v1.20 make any difference?

thx!!

Drivers, Drivers, Drivers! Make sure you are running the newest drivers for all your hardware. That's fixed more problems on my system then anything... Well, that and a completly new system! :-)

I don't think anything will help for a Trident 8mb card. I've been in touch with notebook owners with 16MB Tridents and they couldn't play OFP no matter what.

go buy a new vid card, you have ZERO excuses not to do so!
