Hi everyone,

I'm new to the Bungie forums, however, I am not new to Halo games. I was wondering if anyone could help me out to tell me whether my computer will support Halo 2 Vista. I have looked at the minimum specs of the game, but I'm still uncertain. hope you guys can help me out.

These are my specs:

OS: Windows Vistaâ„¢
Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo CPU 6400 @ 2.13GHz (2CPUs)
RAM: 2 GB
Hard Drive: 160 GB
Video Card: Intel GraphicsMediaAccelerator X3000 (integrated) (DX10 Support)
Internet: 10mbps cable
Drive: CD-RW/DVD-R combo drive

While everything appears to surpass the requirements of Halo 2 Vista, I am worried about the Intel GMA X3000 integrated chipset. I can run Halo in 1280-1024 resolution and max settings with No lag. I can also run Half-Life 2 1280-1024 resolution max settings No lag. However, I cannot even start up Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, because that game checks for T&L, and my chipset does not technically support T&L but it emulates it well. Games that generally dont run on my computer, are games that check for T&L, or require NVidia or ATI graphics cards. Some examples are Call of Duty 2 and Battlefield 2.

I was hoping someone could help me out to see whether Halo 2 Vista checks for T&L or whether it requires an ATI or NVidia graphics card. I didnt wanna spend any money on a new videocard if this one will work. I would appreciate it if some guys at Bungie could answer my question. Thank you.

Interesting flash show, but I still don't understand your comment...
