I didn't notice that...

No, you cannot run TF2 until you get a decent amount of RAM and a new graphics card.

I REALLY hate when you post ANYTHING related to hardware, in particularly RAM, you have ALWAYS been wrong in almost ANY topic you posted in about RAM.

It is the minimum he can have, therefore it will work.

512mb might be okay for Windows XP, but any amount of ram under 1GB is grossly out of date. Maybe in 2008 you could have stretched it, but its just too old hat now.

That is true, but he has stated numerous times that "oh this game wont work, lol 1GB of ram" when it's a game that required 512 or recommended 1GB.

So the graphics card would be the problem?

No.

You need at least 1 gb of RAM or your game will crash whenever it overloads your page file.

Therefore it will work as far as RAM goes.

No.
You need at least 2 gb of RAM or your game will crash whenever it overloads your page file.

I have 1.5GB of RAM and play TF2 with no issues what so ever.

How large is your page file?

_Rave_ · July 12, 2011, 04:11:48 AM

Ram isn't even expensive. Why would you only have 1.5?

Maybe it was second hand and the person doesn't have the time / knowledge to upgrade.

Ram is expensive with an outdated computer, go see what 1GB of DDR RAM sells for, and then take into account I have no job.
