Hello:wave:

I might be either rebuilding my computer this summer, or just buying a new one. I'm thinking about trying to find a copy of CFS2 to give it a try when I finaly get a working computer I can game on. Does CFS2 require any spectacular system requirements like CFS3, or can I just put it on any old machine like CFS1 and make it work acceptably? Because I have a computer I can use for old games like CFS1 but it needs a new hard drive. Unless I can find myself a reason to buy a hard drive, I'll just leave it to collect dust until I totally rebuld it. It only has 128MB of working RAM trying to haul Windows XP:faint: . Just wondering if CFS2 can run on this like the earlier CFS.
Thanks for the help in advance.
 
Yeppers, Bearcat, those are certainly the basics for CFS2.

I would recommend at least doubling all of the values for a CFS2 install that actually is more than an arcade game, though.

Microsoft® Windows® XP or Vista
  • PC with 1 GHz equivalent or higher processor
  • 256 MB of RAM for Windows XP or 1 GHz of RAM for Vista
  • 350MB available hard disk space, 50 MB of available hard disk space for swap file
  • 4x speed or faster CD-ROM drive
  • 128 MB video card
  • Sound card, speakers or headphones required for audio
  • Microsoft Mouse or compatible pointing device
  • 56.6 Kbps or better modem for online play

These would be my minimums.
 
I experienced a lot of fun since 2003 using :
windows 2000 or XP SP2
512 k processor
256 MB RAM
video card GeForce 4 MX440 64 MB
roughly 2 GB in the hard drive
 
I ran CFS2 pretty good on a system with a 500MHZ CPU, 756MB of RAM, and a Geforce Mx400MX card.

You can build a pretty good 'budget' system and CFS2 will scream on it.
 
Well, it looks like my machine can do it... Now I just have to try to hunt down a copy of the game...:typing:

thanks everyone.
