(Perhaps) future Newbie!
Hello, I just recently bought a new notebook that comes with Vista Home Premium. Based on what I read in the forums here, it looks like it may work. My next question, will it work with the new set up? Here are the specs:
AMD Turion™ 64 X2 mobile technology TL-56 at 1.8GHz 2GB RAM 120GB HD NVIDIA GeForce Go 6150 (UMA)with up to 288MB shared video memory I am what is probably considered a very casual gamer, but every once in a while I like firing up a game or two, this one I've wanting to play for quite a while. The other thing that worries me is Starforce, I see so many conflicting versions, I really don't know what to believe or do, but I guess first things first, since I am not even sure it will run on my laptop.  Thanks! |

 Oh man, I am off to a great start... oh well, I lived without SH3, and I am sure I will survive... Thanks.

Several people play SH3 on laptops, and have no problems, and yours looks pretty impressive to me; but on the other hand I don't have one and I don't know what their positions are concerning SF.
Don't get to down - or up - until some of them chime in. I'm sure within a day or so you'll have more information than you can handle.

Thanks guys, I appreciate your input. I think I will give it a shot, and hope for the best. I will wait a few days in any case, and see if any more info comes along here.

I'm just wondering, how well shared memory for video will play for the game?
