You can do that by going to Start -&gt; Run... type in &quot;dxdiag&quot; without quotes and hit &quot;Run.&quot; Click on the &quot;Display&quot; tab.

My bro has my old 3000+ (939) and no matter what graphics setting, it plays the same.

Even if it did run, it wouldn't be playable with the lowest of settings. I couldn't even beat some of the courses using an X800 XL because of low framerates. <img src="http://media.hardwareanalysis.com/smilies/smile2.gif" width="14" height="14" border="0" alt=":(" title=":("> text/html 2008-02-26T22:06:52-05:00 Adam Kolak http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/topic/70823/#530161 Brendan Gonsalves said: <div class="quote">Adam Kolak said: <div class="quote">Brendan Gonsalves said: <div class="quote">I really dislike that game...<br /> <br /> EA couldn't even optimize the game enough to make it playable on a X1950Pro!
