Will GC:DA run on a laptop with a GMA 950?

from GalCiv2 Forums
Tomorrow if I am lucky I will be able to buy a Aldi Laptop

Specs:
Windows Vista™ Home Premium
Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator 950
Dual-Core Processor T2060
1024 MB DDR2-SDRAM
S-ATA HD

Will a GMA 950 enable me to play GC2:DA? I won't mind playing at the lowest settings as long as it will by playable!

GMA 950 should run the game, though I can't really say as to how your perfromance will be.

I believe my friend has that exact same chipset and he runs it just fine
Star Control: Origins

Thnx for your replies!

If I am able to get one (most of the time there are more customers than they have on sale) I will post my report here how it runs!

I only play GC2 thus if I can run it at a decent speed I am more than content!

Running the game in Vista the performance is real bad. Since Vista takes a large part of the system memory the video memory seems sometimes insufficient to run te game even on low settings.

Thank god, I still have a desktop pc
