Is anyone running BF with the 9200?, i still have had zero luck getting the game to even boot. I guess it back to Soldier of Fortune for me.

you should be able to run it with that card what are the rest of the specs for your system and a little more info on what you have done to try to get it to work.

Sys
Athalon 950
Abit Mobo
1gig Ram
SB Live Plat.
Radeon 9200 (just bought it, had a Matrox G400 max that the game ran on but vey very badly)

I have changed the refresh allowance to 1, then back to zero, I have newest Direct X, Audio, Video Drivers.

On boot the game runs through videos and then goes to black screen music plays for about 10 seconds then sys lock. on reboot i get a error about the radeon 9200 causing sys crash.

The Radeon 9200 is THE WORST card ATI ever made...

I got the 9200 for like $60 bucks, I would have grabbed somthing diffrent from newegg If I was more certain how long I was going to be states side.

At least now I can run Sof2 much better than with my matrox. I think i'm going to take BF1942 back today, any opinions on other games I might pick up for some quick fun.

Thanks for all the help

I have an 8500 (non-LE), and it runs the game passably. I'm guessing the 9200 is a bit faster, but sometimes the ATI people get stoned before they pick names for their cards. I read a review that says the 9200 is a bit slower than the ti4200, so go figure.
