There's a whole bunch of people whining and complaining about the game crashing/choppy/ other crap, well what is your Windows Experience Index score? If it's below 5.0, then you are more likely than not to have such problems. Upgrade your parts! My system currently sits at a 5.3, and I have not yet had a single problem with the game.

Another solution would to be lowering the screen resolution (in the video menu in settings in Halo 2). Also, try running it windowed instead of full screen, also with a lower resolution, and this may fix the problem.

yes the required is 3.0, but it also states that more powerful systems will have "noticeably increased performance", while those with lower quality systems (AKA: THE MINIMUM REQUIREMENT (3.0)) will have "noticably REDUCED performance".

and it also recommends a 5.0, which means to get the best experience, a 5.0 will do the trick

My laptop is 2.5, and the game runs fine on low, and small lag on high, its never crashed, my card is a ati mobility radeon x200, lol, not even supported, but works, although the game is a terrible waste of money.

Performance includes crashes and scene skips...the performance is therefore lacking if this happens.

Also the AR is actually good in CQB now and no longer a glorified baseball bat.

I have a 4.2, and I have had no crashes or anything caused by the game.
