Whats the CPU? my guess is a Celeron M 1.5Ghz, correct?

You may be able to load the game, but i doubt you'll be able to play.

Microsoft® Windows® 98/Me/XP/2000
PC with 450 MHz equivalent or higher processor
Sound card, speakers or headphones required for audio
128 MB of system RAM
16 MB video card required
1.5 GB MB available hard disk space
4x speed or faster CD-ROM drive
Microsoft Mouse or compatible pointing device
56.6 Kbps or better modem for online play

These are the requirements.

Are you sure those are the AoE III system requirements? 'cause i believe they are slightly higher than that, i'll look 'em up when i get some time...but forthe laptop it should[ run on low settings.

Okay, so your specs are pretty much exactly the same as the minumum requirements. So technically it will play, but on the lowest settings at either 640x480 or 800x600 (max) resolution.

Modoman · 12-26-2005, 01:55 AM

i think 800x600 is the lowest in the game, if i remember correctly

i wasnt sure if it was or not, but thanks for clearing that up. So most likely you can play on lowest settings at 800x600.
