Your card has 256 MB Video RAM with shader model 2.0
If FIFA 09 supports 2.0 as the minimum, your safe to play it, absolutely no worries! However if it requires 3.0 then you won't be able to play it. I had the same problem last year with Splinter Cell Double Agent as it requires 3.0 shaders and I had an integrated graphics at that time which supported only 2.0 and I did however manage to install the game but when I clicked play game then the game crashed with an error message.
Anyways this is what happens when your card does not have enough shaders to run a particular game. It won't even run slow motion it will simply crash from the first second if you try to run it.
But if it don't work, don't worry there are plenty of graphics card in the market that are quite cheap and have shader model 4.0. If you get a card with shader model 4.0 you have no worries playing the latest games! But some games might not run smoothly depending on the cards FPS performance. But you don't have to worry with FIFA 09.
Every year we have people worrying about the specs of FIFA , will it run, etc after they get the game they forget about all these worries
