error message: not enough video memory to run the game (ea sports tiger woods2002)

Yes, this ea sports game refuses to run on my computer. When I try to run the game, this error message appears on the screen preventing me running the game: ' DirectX is reporting that there is not enough video memory to run the game' and then the following: ' The instruction at "0x21111ba3" referenced memory at "0x02548cd8" The memory could not be "read"
My computer -- Dell dimension 8400
CPU ------------3.2GHz P4
Hard disc------ 160GB
Memory------- 1 GB ram
Video memory-256MB (dedicated)
Video card----- ATI Radeon X850XT PE

Guess i have more than enough memory to run the game and it still refuses to run.
Any solution?

Is that the only game you have trouble with?

I had the same problem but when I changed my color depth from 16 bit to 32 bit then the game played.

Are you keeping your video drivers up to date?
