Hiya Alex

Sounds like your PC has too low a spec to run Ship Simulator 2008, if you can post details of your FULL spec, we can maybe advise you of where your spec is lacking

Regards.

DJM.

and i know the processor is 1.60 G but its a duo core processor

It looks like your Graphics Card is quite a bit outdated, try getting an Nvidia or an ATI...I dont know how to upgrade laptops, but i think (not Sure) Nvidia makes laptop Graphics cards. Hope that helps!

Just as Hawk233 says, your problem is here:

Dedicated/Shared Graphics Memory Shared 
Graphics Chipset Intel 945GM

That is on-board graphics, dedicated is always best, especially for games.  If possible, upgrading this is the best way to resolve the issue.  I see it's a Laptop, upgrading is not always possible with these unfortunately, you may need a new PC/Laptop.

Hope this answers your question and thanks Hawk233

Ok, enough.  As I have already stated, a licence key will not be provided.  Did you buy this game?  If you did, where did you buy it from?

I may be able to assist you in retrieving a licence key, but one WILL NOT be provided.

Ok, I have a question in response to that.  If you bought the game, why would you need to search for a licence key?

Asking for a licence key on the forums is unacceptable behaviour and will not be tolerated.  Any further requests for a licence key and those posts will be removed.

[[RWP]DJM]

As stated, post removed francisjazzr.  However you choose to provide details, they will be removed.  If you want a licence key, buy the game.

[[RWP]DJM]

Ok, francisjazzr I see you're ignoring me completely.  You have been asked, now you are being informed.  Stop this behaviour immediately.

This issue has been reported.  I will issue no more messages regarding this, your posts will be removed.
