Hey,

The game seems to doesn't work for me... The hardware check failed on two: CPU (I only have an Intel 4 2.66Ghz) and video memory (I have 128mb). But although the check was negative, I thought it was worth a try, taking it into account that more games show the same kind of thing in a check. The intro was all right, loading screen and such. But when I went into the game by clicking New Game the screen turned to windows and gave an error in the .exe file (standard error).

Is it possible to even play the game with my kind of specifications (Intel 4 2.66Ghz, Geforce 6800 128mb, shader model 3, XP SP2) or do I really need to upgrade my system?

Please answer normally, I'm not waiting for reply's like: "Your system is crap" etc.

Thanks in advance,

Cyber2003

So according to this minimum configuration my specifications are fine, except for the CPU part. But I don't think that's the problem in this story, is it? Is it possible that my CPU is causing this error or has it something to do with windows in combination with the game?

They should just print this in big red letters on everything. If something doesn't work update drivers first then troubleshoot..
