in my oppinion everything looks OK (except 1.5 ghz and 2Gbs ram)

3.0 Ghz cpu required

and like 3 Gbs ram for Vista min from trying.

This game is mostly unfair to laptop owners due to high spec requirements.   probably alienware is one of the few companies that have a laptop that can run this game smoothly at high settings.

yes, I know other companies can but, not without paying more for upgrades..you know what I mean.

my specs as an example

Nope.  You need more RAM if you want the game to function well.

QFT.

I am on..

Dual core 3.2Ghz,  8800 GTX 768mb, running at 2.7GB RAM on vista

and I have every graphical setting maxed out, running at 30-50fps.

RAM is the key to success, tried it with less and it kills the computer with high settings.

you can only play on the lowest graphical settings

Enigma

get another 2 gigs of ram and you are good to go!
