I do not have extensive knowledge of computers. I have a Toshiba A205-s4587 laptop. It has some pretty decent specs (120 gb hdd, Core 2 dou, and 2 gb of ram. But it has a 224mb integrated graphics card :(. I really didnt expect to play high end games like Crysis or COD4 but i did expect it to at least play Age of Empires III.... but it doesnt. It says that the game needs 64mb of memory to play it but it says i only have 32.... is there any way that i can increase it at all. Anything would be helpful. Also I would like to get a graphics card to put in here would it be possible. Thanks.
 
I sort of had the same problem, I got an integrated 256mb g-card with my PC but the amount of shared RAM on my computer was limited to 64mb so really it could only be 64mb :(

I guess I'm gonna have to buy a new graphics card but I only have an AGP slot, no PIC-E :S, anyone have any suggestions as to the best AGP card for under £30 on eBay? lol, anything's got to be better than mine :P:rolleyes:
 
Probably no way around it, maybe try updating your drivers. AOEIII is pretty demanding, I couldn't play it maxed out with my old computer (AMD 64 2800+, 1GB ram, x850pro). Seeing you have a laptop, you're pretty much out of luck.
