Need help just got FEAR for my pc downloaded it just fine, no problems
whatsoever. When I go to play the game it says video card doesn't meet the
requirements what can I do. In the book it tells me to enable pixel doubling
(where do I find that) then put my 'force dx8 shaders' to on (what) Hope
someone can help me.

Those options can be enabled in the options on the menu.

What graphics card do you have? If it's less than the requirements by a lot as Jimmy pointed out then it probably won't run at all.
