Just Cause 2 PC Demo Fatal DirectX error

[JAMES_911]

I think that it is compatible and having no issue while running the Just Cause 2 game on the same. As the Minimum requirement for the game is the ATI Radeon HD 2600 Pro but it can still run on your device. So try this out and let me know whether the game is working on your device or not. I hope that it will work.

The device is completely compatible and you may need to work well with the thing. The possibility may also related to the compatibility of the driver with the system. Install the driver under compatibility mode for Windows Xp. This will help.

Try to first disable Anti-Aliasing. This is necessary if you are using Windows 7. Then you will have to do a compatibility setup which must be set to Windows XP or Windows Vista. Then after that check back for DivX Updates for your system. You will need to run both DivX and DirectX udpate on your system and also check that which version is compatible with your GPU.

this is my videocard i think: ATI Radeon Xpress 1200 Series

(i hope so)

Yes, thats your video card but I guess it is not enough to play Just Cause 2, you will have to buy a new graphic card for it. Check the below Just Cause 2 system requirements for pc:

I have a question.

I now have the following system:

OS: Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit (6.1, Build 7600)

Is it smart to buy a new video card (can the system take it) or is it better to buy a new computer?
is my sound card good enough?

I am very glad about the help on this site!!

Thanks in advance gr joos

Well, your processor seems ok, ram is also fine, but you didnt give us information about your motherboard? If your mobo has pcie slot then you have to buy a pcie graphic card, so you can go with any of the video cards either from nvidia or ati company. With the new video card installed in your pc, you will be surely able to play just cause 2 then.

Basically the motherboard which supports Intel Core 2 Duo has Pci-E slot and I will recommend you to go for small to medium range card. Better go for some GT series from Nvidia medium range card which will also not cost you much. And a graphic card is also a need for today video game because no games work without that. Your RAM is enough and that does needs a upgrade.

I opened my computer yesterday. I have a PCI-express 16x connection.
So I have only to select a graphics card right now.
I was also thinking about a middle class video card.

I was thinking about this video card. (nl site)

I have a Foxconn motherboard at the moment. (good enough?)

Kind regards, Joost

[Ninja-X]

Well, what is the model no. of your Foxconn motherboard? Try to get the details from here, its manufacturers site. And the graphic card that you have selected is a beast, the ATI Radeon HD5770. This card is based on a PCI Express 2.1 x16 bus interface technology, so I guess your mobo wont be sufficient enough to support it. Also, you would require a good Power Supply for it support because the card alone needs maximum board power to 108 Watts.

this is the most i can find:
motherboard properties:
Fabrikant Packard Bell BV
Product Berkeley
Versie To be filled by O.E.M.
Serienummer ULPQ73000483

motherboard ID: 63-0100-000001-00101111-060807-RS600$BERK0400_BIOS DATE: 06/08/07 13:36:40 VER: 08.00.14


I can not find more stuff of about my motherboard.. (have downlaod some program to find this given's)

Do you know where i can find my power supply settings?

this is the most info i can give you more i don't have......

thanks for information

[JAMES_911]

If you can open your computer case then at the top corner side opposite to the dvd/cd drives prolly, you can get the details about your power supply. Check the voltages and WAtts written on it and post it here on this forum. And as per the specs of your mobo, I suppose I dont have a clue what that model is, apart from its a packar bell, I wonder why dont you use Everest Software that will let you know everything about your computer specifications.

Ok, First, You probably don't need to upgrade your power supply(350 watt) for a "Middle of the Road "graphics card as they don't require an additional power cable(s). The ATi 4650 or 4670 use the standard 350 watt/400 watt PSU. These are tough, fast and low power graphics Cards that will run Any games currently on the market. They are 10.1 Direct X compliant, PCIE 2.0. They have XFIRE and are priced very low(about 60-75.00 USD). Best bang for the buck! My wife has one and she loves it. The 5770 is a great card, Direct X 11.0, about 160.USD, and will require a PSU upgrade to 550-600 Watts. Good Luck!

i got mine to work after ringing dell (my laptop is dell) and they re installed my nividia graphics driver and it runs fine now

[josty2]

i think i have a problem....
my power supply will not go higher than 250 watt....
i think i have to buy also a power supply(A).

greeds, joost

[josty2]

i do also use everest !!!!
but not every info is in it........
