Hello, and apologies if this is not the proper NG for this question. . .
I have a new AMD Athlon 2.5 GB System that I just built with GB RAM and 80
GB Western Digital Drive.
I have an old Electronic Arts PC game called Need For Speed: Porsche
Unleashed that I've been told (finally) by Electronic Arts will not work
under Windows 2000. When I attempt to start the game, it changes my screen
resolution to 640x480x256 (which I expected it to do), but then reverts back
to the Windows Desktop. Below is the System Information from DXDiag:
