Can my PC run it?

[Hurr Durr Derp]

That graphics card is really, really bad.

Other than that, it will run.

 

[AWAR]

Dont think so but if you insist get some more ram and maybe some cheap stand-alone graphics card.

 

[mikecoulter]

Yeah, most newish computers can. Although it may have to be on quite low settings due to the graphics card...

Or even try to rid of your virus? AVG Free + Spybot Search & Destroy could do some good.

Kaspersky labs also has a free rescue boot disk that will scan your system from Linux. It's saved a number of machines I've had to work on.

Wow never knew they did that. I used to use one called Hirens Boot CD. That was awesome, could scan (with multiple scanners), defrag, format. Actually, it was a real life saver.

It works like a dream. And it's self-updating. It takes a long time to boot, but that's because it's bundled with every imaginable driver for Gentoo to make sure it'll run smoothly.

You can deliver it to a electronics shop for them to upgrade it. Doesnt to much and its not a risk at all.

Well im gonna try it in a few but with low settings wish me luck !! =D

This is your friend.

SystemRequirementsLab is awesome. I recommend remembering that or googling "can I run it" whenever you want an estimate on how well a game runs. I use it all the time these days, since I want to know if my age old computer can run stuff. Usually it gives a pretty accurate estimation, too.

Nevermind, there is a ninja afoot.

systemrequirementslab.com is a great place to start.

OMG i failed the test a million times but soo many people still say i can play it and someone up there says it can get things wrong ...

Get some more ram and it will run smooth. TF2 can run on a Commodore 64.

Ya about that i had to buy it with my money but my mom made it the family computer (I am 15)
so i cant open up and upgrade it soooo.....=/

Poor excuse. I've been tinkering with my PC since I was 12. All it takes is a bit of proficiency. And also showing a bit of knowledge to your parents...

Also, with integrated graphics and 512 RAM, you might as well forget about smooth experience.

 

[TheEngineer]

Im running it right now its not as smooth but its still works thanks for all the help fellow escapist members =D

 

[jason27131]

Sooo i have to ditch my old gaming PC (virus) and i can only afford the PC im on right now. So i wanna play TF2 on this mew PC but i just wanna see if this PC has the right requirements. So im gonna leave the requirements and somebody tell me if i can run it....


CPU: Intel Celeron CPU 2.40GHz

CPU speed: 2.39 GHz

OS: Windows XP Professional

RAM: 510 MB

Video Card: Intel 82865g Graphics Controller

Sound Card: SoundMAX Integrated Digital Audio

Free Disk Space: 22.3 GB

Thanks!!

Uh dude, that pc ain't gonna run shit. The gpu is an integrated piece of crap from 2003, that can barely run css @ ultra low in dx 8.

No problemo, have fun!

 

[Jack and Calumon]

512 ram? Youch! Keep the settings low! Anti Aliasing? Thats a no go.

Intergrated graphics? Nuh-uh! Bad...

An Intel processor...

YES, it will run TF2, but at a push. Don't expect Crysis to run on that thing or the universe would explode.

As well as your computer.

That should help.

"Video Card: Intel 82865g Graphics Controller"

Will make playing it so unpleasant as to be pointless.

 

[raskyred]

Probably not at all, though if you can get it to run it will look like and play like ass. You have 512 megs of RAM, and some of that is being shared by your onboard video. That is ugly ugly ugly.

I use to haave to ask this question, but now I'm quad core and have a gtx 260 I laugh at system requirments.

Then realise my hard drive is full

Well Someone it proud of their computer.

I may only have a GT 220 (with 1gb dedicated memory), but I used the extra money to buy an expansion drive so I have 1Tb+ HDD space. Ha Ha!

Only kidding. I've been stuck with an 80gb drive for the past 4 years until I got my new PC last month. Hard drives are cheap as hell nowadays. I picked up a 500gb USB HDD from my local supermarket for £45, and you can get them cheaper online.

OT: there are a lot of free Linux distros that you can put on a USB drive that are full of great computer repair tools.

 

[Seef]

My old computer had similar or maybe worse specs than that, but would still run TF2 on low settings. so if you're willing to sacrifice graphics for performance, then go right ahead. Or try this site: http://cyri.systemrequirementslab.com/CYRI/intro.aspx

 

[SturmDolch]

My PC just let out a little whimper of pitty. I have a netbook with better spec than that, seriously.

Yeah, which is why I'm wondering if this is a joke..? Seriously? 512 MB ram? Intel 82865g Graphics Controller? Only 22.6 GB of memory!? What is this, an iPod?! I hope you're not paying too much for this...
