Hmm, that sucks. According to the website, this is what you need. I havent actually gotten around to download it yet, but I have a laptop so I wonder what my chances of success is.

As a note, i tried playing on HD6870 and 4gb of RAM and would crash a LOT even on the lowest settings (sometimes every 5 minutes). I upgraded to 8gb RAM (& Windows 64bit obviously) and now can play on the highest settings smooth as butter.
In the process of downloading atm. I reckon I will try out a combat medic and see how that works for me. Hopefully my computer and internet connection is going to cope.
