Try the vendors drivers, not the ones that come with the Windows 7 installation

Post your specs
This is just a video card driver issue.
Goto either,
Here for Nvidia video cards
Here for ATI video cards
or here for Intel video cards

Hold down the Windows key and press R. Type "dxdiag" without quotes and hit enter. Relevant PC specs right there.
Video card info can be found on the "Video" tab.
Re: Windows 7...Another Masterpiece
Make a new partition on the harddrive and install some other version of Windows ( XP etc. ). That's what I did to play FoF as it's not working on Win7.
Myself I have already updated all the drivers and done everything I could, but nothing has helped with the problem. Tried to get the solution that: I was trying to find it for a few months, didn't find anything.

Listen to this person.
An easy way to get your specs is to go Start > run > devmgmt.msc and all your hardware will be listed there. You are looking for your display adapter.
