I'm not sure if my laptop can support StarCraft 2. Because I don't have a desktop and I only have a laptop.

And I heard about the overheating problems.

Here are my specifications.

Card name: NVIDIA GeForce G 105M
Operating System: Windows Vista™ Home Premium (6.0, Build 6001) Service Pack 1
System Manufacturer: Acer
System Model: Aspire 4736
BIOS: InsydeH2O Version V1.06
Processor: Intel® Core™2 Duo CPU T6500 @ 2.10GHz (2 CPUs), ~2.1GHz
Memory: 3070MB RAM
Page File: 969MB used, 5374MB available
Windows Dir: C:\Windows
DirectX Version: DirectX 10



Do you think I can run the game?

Dont worry about overheating if you limit the FPS.

Upgrade your Vista to SP2

Download latest driver for G105M. Driver DL

Because G105M only comes with 8 cuda cores, less than 9400M of 16 cores so use low setting on the game

Good luck tongue.gif

Er.. just go to windows update and it should have the option to update to SP2, but if urs is "having some difficulty" then do google around, we cant help u on that. But SP2 does improve the speed quite some margin.

i doubt that it would run perfectly even on Low settings. sorry bro, maybe you can borrow someone's dvd and try login using your fren's ID first to check whether does it work.

Bro, your graphic card spec is slightly better than mine.

Mine is GT 320M , 4GB RAM , Core i5 520M.

Can play smoothly in high settings, no problem at all.
