The forum

Hello, I'm fairly new to the world of Wine and PlayOnLinux, but I managed to install Starcraft and Fable.
About Starcraft no problem (at least until now! ) but Fable doesn't start.
When I try, it complain about me having too little video memory (16M for what it states), but I'm running it on a ATI X700 128M, so it's impossible!
My Wine version is 0.9.46

Thanks in advance for the help

Hi,

use WineBooter (until POL 2.0.10) or Avdvanced Wine Configuration (Since POL 2.1.0) to set your Graphic card Memory and try again.

Thanks for the reply, I've managed to set the video memory to 128M, but now it exits after a few seconds of blank screen, setting the screen resolution to a choppy 1024*768. (I'm on a 1280*800 pixels laptop)
I don't know if it can help, but here's the last part of the wine log:

use the Wine Configuration Tool to set the résolution to 1024x768 Window (this will prevent your desktop to be downsized by wine crash) and verify you have descent Hardware Acceleration (ATi Linux Driver is not know by his quality) using POL test Tools.

Oh and remember to desactivate Compiz-Fusion before using 3D Games !!
