I have Pentium 4 (2.53 Ghz) 1GB Ram, 256mb 7600GS Nvidea. Works good with full graphics on my 19" monitor.
You might be short on ram I guess..

You just need to add some extra ram in your pc. Not very expensive though. What is your graphic card?
I admit this game got some high pc requirements, but for shiplovers....
... It's worth it! :)

im not sure where to find graphics card and will it not work with the ram i have at the moment and what will it do if i buy it with the ram i got ?
-
you can find your graphic card by:
Rightclick on your desktop --> Properties --> Setting Tab --> Advanced --> Monitor
The type of the card is displayed behind "Chip Type"
For the ram, just go to your local computer store and name the pc you have. The best is you buy 512mb of 1Gb ram extra.

Have you play the demo yet,If so,did it work okay.That will give you some of the answer.

Never heard of a 224MB video card ??? Please run a dxdiag and attach it here. I was able (barely) to run Ship Sim 2008 with 2X 128mb video cards in SLI mode. I believe the minimum is suppose to be 256mb and even at 256 you'd run the risk of having some issues. It's playable at 256mb but more is definatley better if you want to have things like wakes enabled on the graphics.
To get a dxdiag click start and run then type dxdiag and hit enter. A window will pop up, once it has finished updating click save info and save it someplace you can get to it to attach here.
