i downloaded the demo from the EA site, and i checked the requirements and i met them all...including my gfx...i have a Radeon 9250 (PCI)...the problem i am getting is that the game freezes at the point where i choose if i want to play multiplayer or single player, thescreen goes blank and i can hear the music...whats happening here?

here are my comp specs:

512MB Ram (its gonna be 1GB in about a week)
ATI Radeon 9250 256 MB(PCI)
Pentium 4 2.2 Ghz
and enough hdd space

:confused:

The 9250 PCI card using the RV280 core is not supported.

Moved to Support.

it means that if you read the requirements (at least on the box) it says AGP or PCIexpress, and you have PCI. I have heard about a couple PCI cards being able to play, but they arent supposed to. That card will not work, but at least you are able to launch the game.
