Battlefield 2 Crashing

I've just got Battlefield 2 and it keeps crashing back to the desktop whenever I try and start it. I think it's because I've got a Geforce4 Ti4200 GFX Card. Does anyone know if this card will run this game? If not what is the minimum spec card you would recommend I buy (preferably one I can by 2nd hand off this forum!!!!!!).

"there's more chance of a cyborg invasion than you running that engine on your system. you'll probably need liquid nitrogen for a start"
lol

6800 runs at about £130 on the members market. Is that the minimum spec card that will run Battlefield 2?

I've got 1gb of ram. I'm not a gamer, my son bought the game today not realising the GFX card requirements so he expects me to stump up for a new card but I haven't exactly got loads of spare cash so am looking for a cheap option!!!

XFX GeForce FX 5200 256MB DDR TV-Out/DVI (AGP) - Retail (PVT34KUAHG) (GX-004-XF)

Would this be good enough?? £43 at OCUK.

"In short, i doubt itll play BF2, smoothly anyway"

Do you mean a 9800 Pro wouldn't play it smoothly?

ps off to bed now - early start tomorrow!
