I believe you need 4mb of memory on your primary DX5 video card.

Did you read the box before you bought the product? Under Minimum Requirements:
"SVGA ( min,4MB RAM...). Upgrade your card and enjoy the best motorsport sim

You must have a different box than me.
Mine definitely does NOT say it needs a 4MB video card.
It's sure to catch some people out.
Maybe they issued some boxes and then realised their mistake.

Just checked my box and it says "4mb card"..However...
It's a sticker (and there's another spec printed on the box underneath this)
..Just taken sticker off...
Aha! does'nt mention anything about 4mb card just says "SVGA 640 x 480 then
65000 colours.
I don't know whether this implies 4mb or not.

You do need a 4 meg D3D or 3dfx card to play F1RS.  This is listed at the sys req's
page at www.ubisoft.com on their F1RS page.
