(...) Unfortunately problems like these almost never have anything to do with 'sophistication', it's just an effect of a couple of things: There is an uncountable number of permutations of a PC system - bus, RAM, video etc. etc. Most programmers (...) (22 years ago, 12-Nov-04, to lugnet.lego)

(...) Thanks for the Info Thomas, it would be nice if others with 16MB Graphic Cards could post their results. Maybe it is possible that the minimum specs need to be changed a bit. Eric Kingsley (...) (22 years ago, 12-Nov-04, to lugnet.lego)

(...) I don't know who else has had success with a 16 MB graphics card, there is probably some. One of my systems had a 16 MB card and I had the same results you had. What's kind of odd is it works on my oldest system that I've got online. Windows (...) (22 years ago, 12-Nov-04, to lugnet.lego)

(...) Well for me the program just does not work and my machine meets or exceeds all of these requirements so there is something else at work here if you ask me. My System Windows XP (Service Pack II) Pentium 4 16 MB Graphics Card with DirectX 8.0 (...) (22 years ago, 12-Nov-04, to lugnet.lego)

(...) I'd say. The budget PC I built myself two years ago exceeds all fo these specs by at least 2X. The fact that they claim it will run on 98 (not just 98SE) is far better than most software I see today. Even my brother's old Gateway that's (...) (22 years ago, 12-Nov-04, to lugnet.lego)
