32Mb Video Card? I'm glad to hear that it ever worked. No offense, but that seems...low...

18Mb Free HD space? You can't run office, yet alone SH3 on such little space. SWAP memory, cache, temporary files, they all need space and 18Mb is far too little!

WinXP Home. Well it's Xp. I'm no expert, but I have heard that Home wan't really the best and that it has/had problems that Pro doesn't. Not really sure, but the game should work, just my observation.

I agree with Respenus. A 32 MB vidcard is the next best thing to worthless. You should at LEAST have 128 MB on board. I don't know how large a download we're talking here, as far as the download version of SH3, but I have the boxed DVD version, and on my Tower with Windows XP Home with SP2, my program files are in 409 folders, and comprise 22,574 individual files for a total size on my hard-drive of 2.47 GB - that's GIGABYTES, not MEGABYTES. So, 18 MB of hard-drive availability seems to be extremely low as well. All I run is a basically vanilla SH3 with patch 1.4b. No supermods...merely torpedo texture, scenery texture, and sky & smoke add-ons. I don't even run custom skins! So, if SH3 even loads on your lapper, you're very lucky.
