Will my laptop handle DW??

Whistler · 07-04-06, 06:00 PM

I'm looking for an interesting game for my laptop that will pass lots of time and run well. I always liked Sub Command, but will DW work on my system? Its brand new and I think my specs will be mostly fine, the only thing I'm worried about is the graphics. Its a 1.66 Intel Core Duo with 512mb ram, but the video comes from an integrated Intel chip with 128mb shared memory... I think its called the 950.

Thanks for any help.

That's a much better system than I have, and I know DW works fine on mine, so barring unexpected problems (you know software) I see no reason why it won't work.

It should be fine. I run DW on my laptop all the time. It's nice to be able to start a mission, save it, download the savegame files to my laptop, and pick it up later. It's sort of like marking my place in a book. :-)

Excellent... thats what I wanted to hear.

Will it be able to handle widescreen resolutions? I've never had a widescreen monitor on my desktop so I don't know how games work on it...
