Will this work?

I was going to head over to BB and pick up a PC game for my wife...."The Movies".

I ran an analyzer for the min specs and the video card failed (on board laptop), but all the specific attributes of the card passed.

Here is a screenshot:

Can anyone confirm if this will work?

If you look at the screenshot it shows the min requirements:

ATI 7000+

The laptop has an ATI Radeon 320m

I was going to suggest you down load the demo and find out that way but there doesn't appear to be a demo for that game.
So go here : http://allboards.lionhead.com/forumdisplay.php?f=54
post your wife's laptop video specs and ask.
You'll have to register but this looks like a pretty decent game site so I'd say it's worth it (use a log on your wife would like so she can swap her 'game' movies with others later ).

edit : Read this thread - http://allboards.lionhead.com/showth...ptop+movies%3F

thanks for the help. I decided to just go ahead and try it as it was on sale today at CC.

It runs great. My wife was pleasantly surprised.
