Canitrun.com says that my PixelShader and Vertex Shader are fine. Except I require 256MB of Dedicated Video RAM but only have 128 MB

Is that what’s causing the installer to not run at all?

I figure the game should still download.. right?

Any thoughts on what’s happening?

When you open the launcher, does it immediately close, and then open, and then close over and over again?

if so, i’m having the same problem. Ill see if this gets a response before i open a thread

You do not meet the minimum specifications to run the game.

Lexandro.1456 is correct. That graphics chip only supports Shader model 2.0 – which will not run a game that requires Shader model 3.0.

The only thing you can do is run the game on a computer that (at least) meets the minimum requirements.

So to be clear- because my video card isn’t supported, the installer auto shuts off?

Yes; it knows that your GPU doesn’t meet the hardware requirements.
