Can my computer run it?

in Vanguard: Saga of Heroes

<Mod edit>

Now onto my POS machine.  I'm on a laptop with 1.6 Dual CPU T2330, 2 gigs of ram and integrated video with 256 MB of shared ram.  I'm thinking that is doubtful I can even run the game but thought I might have a chance since the game came out a while ago.  I can run WoW fine but we all know you can run that game on about anything.
Would certainly appreciate some info.

    I'm on the same boat, I need a buddy key as well, I got VG to give it a try and I didn't want to spend money either. So what did I do instead? I traded in some of my VERY VERY old PS2 games that I either beat or no longer play, and traded them in for the game, that way I know that if I don't like the game, at least I didn't spend real money, and since I don't even play those games then there's no real loss.

    Thanks for the reply.  I guess you aren't allowed to ask for buddy keys on this forum?  Mod edited my post...Don't really see the harm in asking for a buddy key but whatever.

    Anyways, do you know if I would be able to run the game at all?

    Not sure at all, I know I have close to the recommended specs, I have 1.5 of ram instead of the 2 recommended. I also find it funny that, apparently you can't ask for buddy keys when I see posts like that all over this site. Whatever.

    andurin, yes you can probably run it on very low settings and it'll most likely be playable. However, at such low settings the game would look like shit and may not be that enjoyable. I'm running it on a 1.86 dual core, 4gb 667mhz RAM, 512mb dedicated 8800mgts laptop under vista and it runs *decently* at high settings. Before all these game updates, I was running it on a 1.83mhz laptop with 2gigs of ram, and a geforce 7400 go with 128mb video ram. It ran pretty crappy on balanced, but was playable. With all the tweaks it should run. I would find a buddy key first though. I think I lost mine but I find it ill give it to ya :P
