well I'm out.. my vid card wont run the game.. all that time to dl the freaking thing too GRRRRRR...
my system meets all the other requirements though.. time for a vid card hunt again I guess.
anyway here are the system requirements for the game.. I cut and pasted them right from the read me file on the demo. Hope it will save someone else some time and effort if your system is not up to specs.
REQUIRED SYSTEM SPECIFICATIONS:
• OS: Windows XP (SP2), Windows Vista (32-bit; 64-bit versions of
Windows Vista are not supported)
• CPU (Single Core): Intel P4 2.8 GHz or AMD Athlon 2800+ for
Windows XP / Intel P4 3.0 GHz or AMD Athlon 3800+ for Windows
Vista
• RAM: 1 GB for Windows XP / 1 GB for Windows Vista
• Hard Drive: 9 GB or more of free space
• Note: 64 bit versions of Windows are not supported
• Video: DirectX 9.0c, NVIDIA GeForce 6600 GT, ATI Radeon
X1300 Pro, or better with Shader 3.0 support for Windows XP or
Vista (Note: NVIDIA 6800XT, 6800LE, 7100GS, 7200GS, 7200LE,
7300GS, 7300GT cards not supported). NOTE: NVIDIA SLI and ATI Crossfire modes are not supported
in Medal of Honor Airborne Demo.
• Sound: DirectX 9.0c compatible sound card (Note: For Creative
Sound Blaster Audigy cards running under Windows Vista you should expect
lower performance)

Just placed my bid for a x1300 pro pci-e card with shipping will be about 45 bucks.
God the things we do to feed our addictions lol.
Update: I won the auction.. Yea!!! ;D I will be able to run the demo in a few days when the card gets here.

same thing here...X800 is only a Shader 2.0 card....but a demo isn't worth buying a new vid for...yet..I still have a PCI-E motherboard just laying in a box waiting for a card..so maybe. Hard to justify getting rid of a good video card, but now that the prices have dropped ....by the way..the X1300 is WAY SLOWER than the X800XL...it supports the Shader 3.0 though.. was trying to find a comparison for you.

for under $50 bucks I thought I would give it a shot..
If I dont like it or the moh airborne I can resell the card easy enough.

I'm looking at getting a card that will last awhile when/if I decide to upgrade to Vista so that I can use Dx10.
So far, I found the BFG GeForce 8600 GTS OC 256MB GDDR3 PCI Express and few similar to that one...
I've never gone with anything but ATI, but I haven't seen any ATI cards that support DirectX 10 yet.
I heard a rumor that "they" are working on getting Dx10 to work with XP though... hmmm

I heard a rumor that "they" are working on getting Dx10 to work with XP though... hmmm Yeah, there's a group working on that. Microsoft claims it can't be done, at least not fully. When I upgrade my computer I'm going to stick with XP. I've got too many utilities that I use daily that won't work with Vista. The tiny difference in the top end of the graphics won't be worth the hassle of learning a new OS. It will still be a huge step up from what I have now. I'm looking at this for my monitor: www.viewsonic.com/products/lcddisplays/xseries/vx2835wm/ |
