    Hi Guys,

    I just got GTA; Episodes from Liberty City for the PC.

    I have installed it but when I go to run it this message comes up ;

    and then the game closes.

    I am using a Acer Aspire 5336;
    -Intel Celeron processor T3500
    -Intel GMA 4500M
    -2GB DDR3 memory
    -500GB HDD


    Any help on what I need to do is much appreciated.

    Thanks.

    Your laptop is not capable of running this game. The integrated graphics card is not powerful enough and you really need a quad core processor as well.

    Its is probably the case that your machine cant run it, but before you write it off totally you could insure you have the latest drivers for your graphics card installed and also make sure directX is installed available here:

    Thanks for the replies.

    Is there a way in which I can upgrade my system to the required(or better) systems?

    For the graphics cards its doubtful, laptops are not known for their upgradibility to be honest. Gaming laptops are quite expensive machines which is why us PC gamers generally dont bother and instead go for self built desktops.

    I have a PC that I don't use, a few years old, but do you think it would be better than a laptop?

    All depends on the specs to be honest. Processor, RAM, and Graphics Card.
