Performance Issues with Certain AMD (ATI) Graphics Cards and Windows XP

Players using certain AMD (ATI) graphics cards with Windows XP may experience performance issues when running FINAL FANTASY XI. Since we cannot guarantee ideal game performance when the following graphics cards are used with Windows XP, we recommend that the game be run on Windows Vista or Windows 7 instead. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and thank you for your understanding.

■AMD (ATI)　Radeon HD 6000/5000 Series
Use of these graphics cards with Windows XP will result in a dramatic reduction in performance. Currently, there is no driver available that will address this issue.

■AMD (ATI)　Radeon HD 4800/4600 Series
Use of the Catalyst 9.6 drivers, or any later versions, with Windows XP will result in a dramatic reduction in performance. As a result, FINAL FANTASY XI may be difficult to play using these graphics cards, as well as any other graphics cards that require the Catalyst 9.6 drivers or later versions.
