Star Wars not working...

Star Wars Battlefront beta crashes when I enter the menu and then comes up with a warning saying that I should update my software, which it is, and have at least 2GB of memory in my GPU... I only have 1GB and am wondering if there's anyway to fix this.... These are the specifications to my PC: http://www.3dmark.com/3dmv/5326199

Nope. You just don't meet min spec's. Maybe they will extend a workaround but this is intentional.

You have a super old GPU that isn't supported. There isn't a way to fix it, and I would imagine you not even being able to run it on low even if the game started.

 

The minimum AMD video card requirement is a 7850. You have a 5850 which is two generations behind, mate.

It's actually not a demanding game at all. I got my 980ti on absolute max settings rendering with 150% DSR 1440p 60FPS locked. But there is probably a software kill switch on the game.

I understand that, but the game and/or it's engine may not support anything below what their minimum is for various reasons, hence it wouldn't even run the game on low.

No, I got a 5850 and it runs the game, when you enter the game before you press enter, press alt and enter, to go into Fullscreen Window, that worked for me
