I PURCHASED F.E.A.R FOR THE PC LATELY AND I CHECKED ON WINDOWS GAME ADVISOR TO SEE IF IT WOULD RUN ON MY PC AND THEY SAID IT WOULD HERES BUT WHEN I TRY TO PLAY THE GAME I GET A BLACK SCREEN THEN IT SAYS (THE VIDEO CARD IN THIS COMPUTER IS NOT SUPPORTED PLEASE REFER TO THE READ ME TXT FILE) WHEN IREFER TO THE TXT FILE I FIND THIS GRAPHICS: General: * Selecting a display resolution that is supported by your video card but not your monitor will result in a black screen. If this occurs, use ALT-F4 to quit the application, and then use the display option in the configuration utility (CONFIG.EXE) to select a resolution supported by your monitor. * Launching the game in Windows(R) XP 64-Bit Edition with ATI Radeon Windows(R) 64-Bit edition Beta Drivers 3 may result in a black screen on launch. To work around this issue, toggle your color quality settings in Windows(R) from 32 to 16-bit (or vice-versa) and then back again. This should allow the game to launch normally. * If you get a black screen on launch and have ACE Mega CoDecS Pack or similar codec packs installed on your computer, you will need to disable installed codecs from the CoDecS Dashboard settings screen before running the game. Please note to which Codecs are being disabled so those Codecs can be enabled at a later time. * The Soft Shadows option will have no effect if the Full-Screen Anti-Aliasing (FSAA) option is enabled. Also, you may notice odd rendering issues with shadows in the game if you enable this option while FSAA is enabled through the Windows(R) control panel. ATI Radeon: * Enabling FSAA and Pixel Doubling at the same time will result in a black screen. This appears to be a driver issue. * Hitching may occur when a large number of new materials are loaded into video memory at the same time. Please contact ATi for the latest information regarding this issue. In the meantime, try turning texture resolution down to Medium in the performance menu.

hmmm.I hate to be the one to have to tell you this but your pc isn't going to play most of the newer games like fear. Windows game advisor isn't worth a damn either.Never go by minimum system requirements.You need a new gfx card to play the newer games and then you will be all set to go.I also recommend more ram. There is no such thing. http://www.google.com/search?q=AMD+...ient=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official Do me a favor.Go into the control panel and click "system" under the general tab it should have the processor.Come back and tell me what it says and I'll tell you if it's any good for games.
What kind of gfx card would you recommend i need nothing to expensive as im only a part pc gamer!! heres what ive got HP PAVILLION AMD ATHLON(TM)XP 2600+1.91GHZ 256MB OF RAM CHEERS FOR THE HELP APPRECIATE IT!!!!!
Your processor isn't the greatest but it would do.There lots of gfx cards to choose from but anything under $130 in most cases isn't worth it. You have to make sure it's compatible with your systems mother board(agp,pci express etc) Here's where I got mine.I like this place because you can shop by price and catagory.They have a huge selection.But you could always look here and write down the model and buy it somewhere else if you like. http://www.newegg.com/ProductSort/SubCategory.asp?SubCategory=48 Cheers.
Aye I forgot newegg won't ship internationally but like I said you can check them out there and order from somewhere else.I live here in the states and it's to bad they don't ship outside because they have done me well every time I've ordered.
