dhruvdeepak is a weird demo my friend lol

The fact that Codies have announced that they won't support integrated graphics cards gives them an excuse to not look at you guys problems. Thats sad actually!!

I got someone with the same graphics card as me- Sis 650 !!!! When I click on the icon it says 'Configuration Utility was not able to run" or some thing like that to do with Configuration Utility

Well that's very nice to hear, but what I was saying that they are not oligated to solve anybody having problems with integrated graphics card as they are for someone having problems with say Geforce Fx 5500 card.

Codies can win all their customer's heart if they provide good customer service and support which has been lacking from EA's part.

I think GeFroce2 isn't a supported card by the game. I have the same card and the same problem occurs everytime. I tried every single solution listed in this thread and still couldn't get the game to work beyond one ball although that one ball that I played, the game worked really smoothly. The game actually crashes when the ball gets to the keeper(try noticing it). If you hit a four of the firstr ball, you'll get to play the second but if somehow the ball reaches the wicket keeper's hands, it'll crash. I tried new drivers, old drivers, formatted my PC 3 times and other solutions listed here but still couldn't get the game to work. Then I tried my friends ASUS Radeon 9250SE (128 MB) and the game is running perfectly. WTF, if the card isn't supported, then why list it? Or is this the problem with only the demo version? Im quite confused over getting this game. If somebody could find a proper solution, I, along with the others, would be thankfull. Please, if somebody could help us. Im trying my best to sort out the problem. If I succeed in finding the solution, I'll let you guys know.

This is what codemasters has to say when i contacted customer care reg game crashes after one Ball..........
Thank you for submitting your recent request to Codemasters Customer
Services concerning Brian Lara Cricket 2005.

Brian Lara Cricket 2005 has not been developed for, nor tested on,
laptop
computers. The reason for this is that most video and sound card
companies
sacrifice DirectX compliance for compactness and portability. Due to
this,
these manufacturers do not offer drivers that are optimized for
Direct3D
games, which means that you may have limited success in running Brian
Lara
Cricket 2005 properly.

The only thing we can suggest that you try is to make sure that you
have the
latest drivers for all of the laptop's hardware from the manufacturers
website. We are, unfortunately, unable to offer any more support than
this.

If you need further assistance, please reply to this email and INCLUDE


Kind regards
Chris

The thing is that people are having problems even when they have ab external card like GeForce2. Some integrated AGPs seem to work flawlessly but what about the people wit external AGPs which are listed in the supported Graphics acard list? We're having this problem. ramana35 can you please mail them again telling them that this is also happening some external AGP cards as well.
