FA on Steam unable to start

Hey All!

I having a rather problematic error that keeps popping up when I try and play FA off of the Crossover Steam.

1) Installed FA
2) Clicked play screen blinks a few times
3) error message: "UNABLE TO START: Hardware Based instancing required. Please ensure system has current video drivers

Any advice?

CrossOver's D3D implementation should support instancing when your OpenGL drivers support it. What graphics card do you have, and which drivers do you use?
