Here's my friend other very unbalanced PC: ATI Radeon HD 4870 750GB SATA HDD 4GB RAM And the weak link: Intel Pentium-D @ 2.0 GHz Will it run? I think not, without a new CPU, but I'm hoping it'll still work because of the massive GPU and RAM.

Well, here's my new test, almost maxed out my download, but my upload and ping suck.

I say yes. The specs are obviously overkill, so it may run it on max... No, I was asking why it WASN'T WORKING. Obviously yes, the specs are great, but he gets an RM320 Error.

Any idea as to why one of my friend's PC is getting the requirements too low error with this? Gigabyte-GA-EX58-UD3R Intel Core i7 920 @ 2.66 GHz OC'd to 3.33GHz with a good aftermarket cooler 12GB Triple Channel DDR3 RAM @ 1600 Mhz 2TB SATA II HDD 300GB Velociraptor (This runs IV) 800W PSU BD-ROM Drive EVGA 896-P3-1258-A1 (GTX 260 Core 216 SuperSuper Clocked) Vista Ultimate x64

Ha, no. THE GAME WILL NEVER RUN ON INTEL ONBOARD GRAPHICS.

Make sure that PC can handle it, because having an NVIDIA GPU doesn't necessarily mean that your PC will be able to handle it. Especially if your card's model number has the numbers 4 or below on the second digit, e.g. 8400, 7300, 9300 (although you can probably get 10~20fps on a 8400 provided that you play it on minimum). Yeah, to make it playable you really need an 8600GT or above.

Just for fun here are my school's new PC's: Dell OptiPlex 755: DVD-RW Drive Intel Core 2 Duo E6550 (?) @ 2.33 GHz 2GB RAM ATI Radeon HD 2100 GPU DVI LCD Monitor @ 1280x1024 XP Professional Didn't look at the HDD, but the PC's they bought last year were 80GB, and they were OptiPlex 745s. Because there's totally nothing to use computers for except gaming, right? LOL, hate to this say this, but great point.

Yeah, the 4870 1GB is better, but with his extra budget, he could get this card for $20 more: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16814130443 EDIT, fuckshit, that was deactivated. The AR isn't worth the $260. Yeah, go with the 4870.

Do you notice your PC slow down? Task Manager may be fucked. Try using RMClock and see what it says. Also monitor your temps, if they go up, then you know that it really is at 100%.

Agreed with some others on here, occasionally when my internet just stops working for unknown reasons, 90% of the time, a reboot will fix it, and if it doesn't then I get out my Gigabyte CD and reinstall the drivers. Those 2 steps haven't failed me yet. But if they did, I would bring a hammer to my PC.

Including all the Grand Theft Auto Games?

Reboot?

Because I don't have Vista 64

http://www.thegtaplace.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=22516 Not that it really needs to be, but it just seems like the type. Thanks!

For those of you out there that have 64, post specific Hardware and Software that you have found to be compatible or incompatible. The Microsoft 64-bit Compatibility checker sucks and has very little on it. Please give specific details and use proper grammar. This will be a useful topic for those looking to upgrade to Vista x64.

Well, not a ton of point in helping him now, he's banned. But, I would reinstall the OS and see if it fixes it. Some viruses invade the OS itself, and reinstalling can sometimes fix it. Happened to me.

Quoted for my continued belief in this statement.

Well, it meets the requirements, but your hardware is still pretty weak. Try getting another XP Disc, or using another disc drive.

Exactly what OS are you installing? If it's XP, your hardware may be the problem.

I'm assuming this won't work. But will this laptop have any chance at all of running IV with everything on Minimum? XP Professional Intel Core 2 Duo 1.66GHz 2GB RAM (Actually, it might be 1, but I think it's 2) 128MB Video (Shit, this'll make it not work......)
