Well, I am running the demo on a laptop with

P4 2.5 gh
512 Ram
SIS 650 Chipset

While MTW runs like a charm (moderate settings), RTW demo is very jerky. There are a lot of lags though I have everything on min settings.

I know that laptops aren't typically very responisive to newer games, but I thought that since MTW worked and the developers stated that the requirements are approxiamately the same, it should run smoothly.

Any suggestions out there?

Perhaps I should start pricing other chipsets or just a new desktop?

Good call Papewaio.

A couple cow lvl runs and I'll be so prepped to handle the ultra turbo units in RTW

Desktop probably... but

I don't know much about laptops, do you have a Video card or is it an onboard deal.?

[KRALLODHRIB]

It's an internal chipset.
