    Flash yourself with a newer bios. I'll bet gil you will see problem solved.
    His specs arent spectacular. But he should be able to run this at minimal settings at least.
    An often overlooked problem to BSOD/GSOD is Memory and/or Bios related.

    Imagine my disappointment when I picked up this laptop:

    And couldn't run this game with out a GSOD every few min. After a bit of research and some time surfing the tech forums at Asus, I had a battle plan. Using a flash card, you can flash you bios with only a few minutes of preparation.

    That's why I prefer desktop, and even those I use only of my own design. Too bad I can't design my own case. I had a hard time searching for a perfect case, but was unable to find one. Stopped at Black Pearl of $300 worth, but even that one isn't perfect. I will certainly have HDD overheating issues with this case, if I decide to install a RAID array of fast 10000RPM or 15000RPM HDDs. So I have to do with a RAID of 2 WD 500GB server 7200RPMs for system and a one 1TB for data storage. This way I can keep my HDDs at around 36C and still have a decent performance. I'd like to move system to SSDs for even better performance, but its way too expensive. But this case is really good for cooling the rest of my system when a powerful graphics card is installed and produces a lot of heat. I never have overheating issues there. And it can fit just any graphics card like this or this (which is one I currently have).
