ManiaPlanet doesn't start.
Error Message: Video Memory is too low: 7Mb found, 128Mb required.
I tryed it on 2 different video cards, both over 128mb memory ( One inside now is a 560TI with 1gb memory ).

Same here =)

My Video card is old and I suppose it will die sooner or later.

The windows screen was normal then black, normal, black and the game laucher (after clicking Play) was very lagging.

Then I retried to launch SM and this message appears !

I will do other testings and relaunch my computer. News after that.

reboot your system, start maniaplanet launcher and give screenshots of the video stettings, also of the advanced and compatibility settings.

When you start the launcher, go on advanced and there you find some settings. Take a screen shot of them, what was TMarc asked for, you don't need to launch the whole game :)

starting mplauncher.exe the only thing that happens is the error pop up. There's no option for settings.
starting mp.exe black screen and the program closes itself.

check you firewalls and Windows application execution control if ManiaPlanet is not completely blocked.
If the problem persits, save your own files (tracks / maps) somewhere.
Uninstall and reinstall the game.
