    I had a 9200SE a long time ago, I played a game called Joint Operations about 2 years back and its couldnt even play JO without massive amounts of lag on the lowest settings.

    Hell my current 9600 Pro 256mb struggles on medium settings.

    So no.

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the 9200 on par with an FX 5200?

    If so, providing the CPU is half decent and there is enough RAM, it should be pretty playable with everything on the lowest possible settings @ 640 X 480

    One question:

    Why try to play on a 9200 while you are getting an M1710 :) Ontopic again: I dont think a 9200 can play the game. Well maybe at lowest resolution and everything lowest. Try Omega drivers, they rock: www.omegadrivers.net

    I've got a 256 Meg Nvidia 5200 and it does play MF2 on the lowest possible settings. There is a great website that tells you how to tweak BF2, cant remember name, but google BF2 tweak and there you go. it really is pretty miserable playing on that system though...
