Will it run on my cpu?

The latest Air Battle game from Microsoft! Running on an entirely new platform, CFS3 is raising it's fair share of problems & opinions - Good & Bad!

It might just about run, but it'll be v.poor quality. You are better off with CFS2 ;)

While I always fly CFS3 on my Pentium 4, CFS3 will run on my oldest computer, a 667MHz Celeron.  I emphasize run because that's about all it does.  I am pretty impressed though.  With all sliders at one, it gets about 10fps.  Not that good but not as bad as it could be.  Since your PC is only a bit better, CFS2 is the way to go.

Not very well - double everything - these are from a AMD XP 1600/512mb/64mb-vid

On one of my systems exactly comparable to yours (vid card is a 32mb TNT2U) game will run but a lot of the features have to be turned down or off.

My current 'release note pictures' are done on a AMD 2400/1gig/128mb FX-5600 which allows all the features to be turned on.

Like the man said consider CFS2 which will look like this on your machine & run full out ;)
