Could it be because my current system specs are too low?

Or is it something else?

Minimum System RequirementsSystem:
PII 400 or equivalent
RAM: 128 MB
Video Memory: 16 MB
Hard Drive Space: 700 MB

Recommended System RequirementsSystem:

Bump?

I don't have much experience on integrated graphics, but the system requirements of this game seem to be pretty much lower than that of this laptop.

Any thoughts on how I can get this game to work?
 
Seems like some people have fixed it by disabling Steam overlay.

"Disabling the steam overlay worked great!


**disabling the steam overlay is done by right click on the game in the Library, then choose Properties, there you find the activation for steam community in game.** "

BTW, I can try it on the laptop in sig. It's not the steam version though..
 
Thanks, I'd never have thought of that!

My game works now :toast:
