    Hi, I have Parallels 9.0.23140.9235944 with Windows 7 SP1 running on Mac OS 10.9 on an iMac 27" early 2011 model. I want to play the new A.Creed game, which I can install but it won't run properly. The frontend comes up and you can move all the graphics options to the lowest setting, increase graphics memory available to 1GB etc. but when you play the game Windows stops working and you have to restart it again. Minimum graphics requirements for the game is Radeon 4650 256Mb whereas in my machine there is a Radeon 6770 512Mb.

    Can someone work on this and post an update so we can play the game? Thanks.

    Try adding the line "video.16_textures=0" (without quotes) below to VM Configuration > Hardware > Boot order > Boot flags.

    Yes, that's got it going. Thanks a lot.

    I increased video memory to 1GB and RAM to 4GB, reduced all the graphics settings in the game but still low frame rate. Any ideas?

    Here the same problem. Parallels and AC Blackflagg... doesnt work.

    Any idea ladys and gents?

    Normally many games, which have relatively high graphic needs, work very fine with parallels.

    But AC Blackflagg is starting in ultraextremeslowmotion. Settings 800x600 and all goodies off.

    Thats not the problem of hardware, its any kind of parallels problem.

    Thanx for help

    (sorry for bad english)
