Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars Message Board  

i have a notebook HP530, i think its enough to run game.
there was no problem in instalation, and it starts as well, but... when i try to deploy a power plant it crashes down - closes down.
i've already instaled updated drivers, and nothing happens...
Please help, i bought this game and i can't play it.
O.S is Vista 32bit.
thanks

Any computer can run the game as long as its Video and sound card are right. Go to the screen on vista where you can view the installed GAMES. Look at its rating.

Also make sure that the specs are right for the game.Like i said you think its enough, but not sure.

this are my notebook specs:
HP530
Intel Core Duo CPU T2400 1.83Ghz
RAM 2Gb
Mobile Intel 945 Express Chipset Family
Please help me to know if these specs are enough.
If they aren't, is there anything i can do to make it work in this notebook?
Thanks

My operating system is Vista Business (32bit)

No, your Express Chipset is not enough to run the game. I am pretty sure that is the integrated driver and those run some games but will not get you far. Below are the games you chip will run.

If its a laptop it is cheaper to buy a new laptop then replace the motherboard, that can also cause problems sometimes after replacing it. If its a desktop just call your manufacture tell them what you have and tell them you want what can run games and they can help you out.

No problem. Even though that is a bad thing it proves that EA is running some good engines in game that provide people with a good gaming experience.

I know your pain, I can not run CNC Kanes Wrath for more than 10 mins due to integrated Video card and the fact I installed Vista and that took up some of the rating for my gaming part of the machine.

There are auto updates that sometimes can fix one game, like driver updates or service packs. The list I found was not updated to the newest update.
