WAR is CrashingFollow

So I decided to go out and buy WAR earlier, whilst only having the minimum requirements. After a long hard troubleshooting on how to successfully download it (it kept saying I needed to download more when I had completed the installation) I tried to play the game. I would start scrolling through the Terms of Agreement, and then a box would come up "Server _______ needs more Magus" or something like that and then a server list would pop up behind that one. And then the game crashes. It just closes out of it self. Now, I realize I have the minimum requirements, but is that really what is making my game crash?

My System -
P4 processor
1GB Ram (I just bought 2 1GB sticks, would this maybe do the trick?)
128 MB ATI Radeon X300 SE video card
And about 160GB memory space left.

Thanks!

P.S. Long time since I was last here :| probabaly about 6 months. How is everyone?

Looking at your specs I would say it is your RAM.

Problem with minimum specs on game cases, they dont take into account that Windows is always using some of the RAM to run in the background so having 1GB of RAM in your system (2GB if your running Vista) really isn't enough. Upgrade your RAM and see if it fixes it. If it doesn't I would probably recommend upgrading all your drivers.

Failing that you could contact Mythic and see if they know what's up.

Ok well that is fine I guess, seeing as I ordered two 1 GB sticks last night. Looks like if the RAM works I will start playing around Wednesday!

Thanks!

And if anyone else has anything to say about it, PLEASE share it.

Hasn't crashed since. I'm running it with the settings almost maxed at 1920 X 1080 res and my comp isn't exactly high end anymore.


P4 3.06
1G PC3200 Dual Channel
Radeon X1650 PRO 512mb

I just installed the vid card. was running a 9600xt and it still worked, frame rate wasn't great but it worked.
