  3. laptop fuji AMD64 3200+, 1 go, ATI radeon 9700 128 megs. omega drivers.

    runing at 18-20 fps (15 with reenforcements) it's playable with options on "normal" (no shadows) (eax off)

    make sure to clean registry base (Ccleaner), turn off you antivir, make a defrag, and use cleanup to delete some hundreds of megs, you may gain some precious fps, when you're playing turn off internet connection to free ressources.
