I am new to Farcry also. Please forgive my ignorance. My game loads and runs fine with the auto-detect settings, however it freezes up every time in the training level when he's about to exit the cave part, Jack opens the door and answers the phone.
I am running Windows XP Pro. with a Radeon 9200SE. 512M ram. 1.2G AMD processor.
Any suggestions?
Thanks, John
