I’m running games on my laptop. Specs are as follows:

Core i7-2630QM CPU@2.0 GHz
64-Bit Windows 7 Home Premium
8GB DDR3 RAM
AMD HD6770M Video Card

Any feedback, constructive or otherwise, would be very much appreciated!

Install the latest graphics driver for your specific card and try again.

Looks like a dual video setup, you need to run game on your ATI adaptor, not the onboard Intel


(kandashi) #4

how do you run the game on the API adapter?

The OpenGL error is down to your system not currently meeting the minimum system requirements. I’ve put up a sticky regarding this error. Closing this thread.
