Will Winter Assault work on a 1.7ghz pentium M

[wonton]

Im saying this because the minimum requirements is a 1.8 P4. My local game store will refuse to take back PC software if it does not work in case i would have copied it . It will be really annoying if i spent 25 quid only for it not to work!

All other components are above specs.

On another note, wont some people find such a specification hike a bit irritating. My mate only barely meets the specs for DOW and he really liked it but was really disappointed that he could not get WA because he's only got a 1.4ghz P3.

Yes it will run on that CPU, but it depends on what kind of graphics card you have. Post a dxdiag.txt and we'll find out for you.

Why does it matter?

don't expect too much performance.
got a desktop 3.0ghz P4 and a 9600 mob 128mb in my laptop and WA is choppier than a nob squad =/

And which driver version are you using?

[Dazz]

It should be fine at say 1024x768. Seems like a decent laptop you got there also the P-M is more effcient then the AThlon 64 and far more then a Pentium 4.

[Moe]

Yeah, that'll work, no sweat.
