    HI!

    i know its a question from 2004, :eek: but still good for me. Ive seen at my local games shop Return of the King for 9.98€. I was wondering how would it run on the following laptop:

    Intel pentium IV, 2,8ghz
    INTEL 82852 graphics card (64mb)
    512Mb RAM

    my graphics card doesnt support T&L, but EA GAMES released a patch to make Return of the king support intel graphics cards.... still, will i be able to run at medium settings or so?

    thanks

    Sorry for replying late. This is what I found on the net:


    Min System Requirements:
    -System: 700 MHz or faster Intel Pentium III or AMD Athlon processor or equivalent
    -RAM:128 MB RAM
    -CD-ROM: 8X CD-ROM
    -Video Memory: 32 MB VRAM
    -Hard Drive Space: 2000 MB
    -Mouse: Yes
    -Sound Board: Yes
    -DirectX: DirectX v8.1

    Recommended System Requirements
    -System: Intel Pentium IV or AMD Athlon XP processor or equivalent
    -RAM: 256 MB RAM
    -CD-ROM: 16X CD-ROM
    -Video Memory: 64 MB VRAM


    I think it should run good on your notebook. Do not expect highest settings, but low-medium should run fine I think.

    Charlie :)

    Sorry :eek:

    Yes that is possible. Because the 64 MB mensioned here is a dedicated VRAM and not shared RAM like Intel's.
    Still I believe your card should run it on low settings.

    I'd have to agree with Charlie. My guess is it will run but don't expect too much in terms of settings. Unfortunately, Intel's integrated graphics are just not very powerful.
