    I'd say you should be able to squeeze out 1024x768 with options on medium.

    Look up some tweak guides for BF2. For example, there is a huge difference between low quality and high quality textures, but not that big a difference between medium and high quality textures.

    I would go for 1024x768, textures and gemometric detail on medium, shadows on low, view distance on full and turn off Dynamic lighting and AA completely - see how you get on.

    It won't look amazing but BF2 can still look nice on medium settings and you should be able to get it looking respectable with that card. It looks absolutely hideous on lowest settings though, I would definately not recommend it!!

    I play the game on my 6400 go and it runs okay...not great, but at low-med settings its smooth and totally playable competitvely onlne.
