Question about Gaming Specs?

Hiya, just wondering, what are the specs for the game? I'm getting an interesting error when I try to open it on my laptop:

Error Message
Not enough video memory to create D3D Device
LoadUI 2

I have a built in ATI Rage Mobility... not exactly sure what else it is because I bought this laptop from someone, not a store or anything. Any help would be great!

you're probably gonna need a vid card with at least 32Mb in it atm.
You might be able to free up some video ram by reducing your destop resolution & colour depth (or by trying out some of the 'advanced directx init' options on the dialog that pops up when the init fails) but i cant promise you'll be able to get anywhere.. i have a suspicion that card might be a bit underpowered.

I've managed to run tractor (albeit like, 01-03) on a built-in piece of rubbish from Intel - so it is possible. if you can run dxdiag (if you know how

) there should be info in there about its power.

Hmm, interesting. I have 4MBs in my video card, lol. Guess I'll stick to the desktop... thanks for the help

A Tractor ROCKS! (only wish I had more time to play it)

The lowest video hardware specs I've found the latest version of Tractor to run on are:

16MB ATI Rage 128 Pro Ultra GL, which is about four or five years old, and this card isn't even recognized as existing anymore

.

So you'll probably need a card with at least 16MB on it.
