Yes I check faqs and patches. None to be seen. The spes on my main are more then enough to run which is why I dont understand why it will run on my older one. But here is the specs

233 mhz pentium, 64 mb ram. windows 98/me/xp/

So as ya can see my big comp should run it, but only the little 800 mhz that thinks it can will run it...lol I dont get it.
