Lamont Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 My on board graphics card wouldnt run it but I had one sitting in the cupboard doing nothing, It is an Asus Extreme AX300SE Seems to do the job fine Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dfgrigg Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 No, you can't update that graphics card. I don't think it would be worth you getting the game with that computer spec. I'm currently running it on an Inspiron 6400 with a Pentium Dual Core T2060 and 1GB of RAM, and it's very slow and laggy. I think your Pentium M would really struggle.

davcon Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 i dont think anyone should get the game, you will have problems!!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven Davis Posted November 16, 2008 Author Share Posted November 16, 2008 So I would need to use a totally different laptop then? Would a: Dell Inspiron 6400 Intel Celeron M CPU 520@ 1.60GHz 1.60GHz 1014MB RAM 32-bit Operating System Display Adapter: Mobile Intel ® 945GM Express Chipset Family Would that be able to work?

Not up on to speed on all of this, but i doubt any onboard graphics system would run the 3d, celerons arent great, kinda like Pentiums little brother.

Steven Davis Posted November 17, 2008 Author Share Posted November 17, 2008 So that laptop won't be able to run FM09 either? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kvbrock82 Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 i dont think anyone should get the game, you will have problems!!! Im having the time of my life actually... I havent been this immersed into a game in years. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serpico Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 RAM memory is added generally in multiples of 512MB. The one you linked to last has 1014MB. 2x512=1024MB. Therefore I deduce the the graphics accelerator on that laptop has a tiny 10MB of memory and is way below minimum spec for FM. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
neilly93 Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Probably best to just download the demo and give it a go. Best way of being certain whether or not the game will run. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven Davis Posted November 17, 2008 Author Share Posted November 17, 2008 The demo is fine, it's just when I play a match it lags or when I'm typing something into the search bar like "Scotland" it comes up as "SSccoottllaanndd" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
