 my laptop is a hp pavilion dv9000 its running windows vista (32bit) intel core 2 t5300 @ 1.73 GHz 2 gigs of RAM and the video card is Nvidia Geforce Go 7600. i am not an expert on computers but it seems like the video card may be the weak link here.

No, not even close =\\\\. Sorry. You need... well, pretty much everything. A MUCH faster processor. more ram, since your running Vista, and an actual video card, not the integrated model. Quite simply, there are pretty much NO laptops that can run Dragon Age. Not for less than $1600 or so anyways.<br />

That's not true, my $800 laptop can run the game on the low settings (it's got an nVidia 9300M). To answer the original question, the video card will be the determining factor (RAM and CPU speed are sufficient). No mobile chipsets are in the supported list because there are many varieties and we haven't tested them all, but they still may work. I'd recommend downloading the character creator first to see if the game will run at all with your video card.

Even if the final game runs on your system though, you should expect to play in low detail settings.

Hey, Andreas - I noticed the character creator auto-detects graphics settings. Are these any indication of what the final game will recommend, or are they specific to the creator? I'm wondering because I downloaded the creator on my laptop which has an nVidia GeForce 8600 GT, which I heard wouldn't really support the game at a consistent 30 FPS. The auto-detected settings in the CC were no AA and medium on everything else.<br />

It's not a huge hairy deal for me, since I have a much more than adequate desktop I plan to use, but I think folks would like something better to go by than whether the CC runs at all.

The character creator does some autodetecting itself, but is very limited. There will be a more sophisticated configuration utility with the final game, but unfortunately that's not included with the character creator.

For now it's best for everyone to go by the system requirements we officially announced, and in case of an unsupported video card (i.e. a notebook card), use the character creator as a fairly good indication of whether the game will run at all on that video card.
