Got a new laptop, only has 512 mb of RAM, requirements have doubled past couple years.. the requirement is 1 gb of ram, Am i able to play PW possibly, with minimum/low graphics always and etc.

Also, my Graphics card is a "Mobility Radeon 7500c", wondering if that can handle PW as well?

    512 MB can handle PWI, possibly. It won't be pretty, though, and it will be extremely laggy as the computer will have to load and unload textures and character models as you run around. Tried it once, had best performance on and the game froze for a second or two every time a player character entered the visible radius. Go ahead and try, the worst that could happen is you have to restart your computer because it froze.

    Stay away from Earthguard and Tideborn areas. They are much more graphically intensive.

    Even if it manages to be playable, don't ever play a tank or cleric. Those two simply cannot handle jittery controls.

    Uh, I remember the last time you posted and I gave you an answer, which was that the game should be playable; as long as you don't go into the new areas which are more graphics intensive (tideborn+earthguard areas, which are both on the bottom of the world map)
