Tenacious_Dude Posted June 7, 2003 Share Posted June 7, 2003 Next year I'm going to a school that gives you a laptop for cheaper if you buy it through them (they use the laptop for science, english, maths etc). I rang them up and asked em about it. It has: 1.5 ghz 40 gb HD 256 mb ram DVD rom (maybe it'll play VC PS2?) Anyway, that's this years so it'll probably have a bit more ram or space next year. Anyway, would that play VCPC? Or Postal 2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vercetti Thug Posted June 7, 2003 Share Posted June 7, 2003 You didn't mention a video card, that is gonna be the major thing to tell if it will run, the processor looks ok, and if you have more more memory in next years model, you just have to worry about a good video card.

Vicetopia Posted June 7, 2003 Share Posted June 7, 2003 Nice laptop. It's probably going to have a GF3 or a GF4 if you're lucky (judging by the other specs). Or maybe some kind of ATI... I don't know ATI. EDIT: I think it'll play Vice. And it'll play Postal 2. Why would you want to play Postal 2?! That game is crap! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenacious_Dude Posted June 7, 2003 Author Share Posted June 7, 2003 And it'll play Postal 2. Why would you want to play Postal 2?! That game is crap! Well, I wouldn't know, would I? If you can piss on people, that'll keep me entertained for hours. Anyway, thanks for the help guys. Oh yeah. What does ghz mean? Like, is that how fast it is or something. Does anyone have the min. system requirements for VCPC? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bl0ss0m Posted June 7, 2003 Share Posted June 7, 2003 Minimum Hardware Requirements 800 MHz Intel Pentium III or 800 MHz AMD Athlon or 1.2GHz Intel Celeron or 1.2 GHz AMD Duron processor 128 MB of RAM 8 speed CD / DVD drive 915 MB of free hard disk space (+ 635 MB if video card does NOT support DirectX Texture Compression) 32 MB video card with DirectX 9.0 compatible drivers ("GeForce" or better) Sound Card with DirectX 9.0 compatible drivers Keyboard Mouse Recommended Hardware Requirements Intel Pentium IV or AMD Athlon XP processor 256(+) MB of RAM 16 speed CD / DVD drive 1.55 GB of free hard disk space (+ 635 MB if video card does NOT support DirectX Texture Compression) 64(+) MB video card with DirectX 9.0 compatible drivers ("GeForce 3" / "Radeon 8500" or better with DirectX Texture Compression support) DirectX 9.0 compatible sound card with surround sound Gamepad (USB or Joystick Port) Keyboard Mouse Theres a 50/50 chance it will run depending on the onboard graphics chip you have, what brand is your laptop and the model number, we can determine the graphics chip this way. And about running the ps2 vc. Unless you have a new emulator that will play it perfectly, it won't work. The meaning of Ghz is just one prefix measure of Hz, 1Ghz = 1000Mhz 1Mhz = 1000Khz and 1Khz = 1 Hz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it space or is it fastness or what? Oh, and thanks for tha min system requirements. And you gotz the reccomended requirements as well. And I was just joking about the PS2 vice (kuz it's a dvd-rom and the laptop has a dvd-rom). *Ahem* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdawg224 Posted June 8, 2003 Share Posted June 8, 2003 yes, ghz means fastness. the higher it is, the faster it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
