Help with choosing a new laptop
Looking to buy a new laptop from around £500 up to about £650 that could comfortably run games such as f1 2012, pro cycling manager, footie manager etc. as well as starters orders. It would also be nice to have a decent size memory or hard drive or wherever all the files get stored. Any suggestions?

Re: Help with choosing a new laptop
I have absolutely no idea, It can open the demo but not the full game, just stops loading and when I troubleshoot it says it's an incompatible application. I emailed support but got no real help so I have to open my old laptop everytime I want to play!

No good for me then if that's the case - being able to play so5 is a must! Why not take it to pc world and see if they can come up with a solution? Thanks for the suggestion though!

I'm sure there is a reason why it won't play it but I'm yet to figure it out, need to have a proper look

Re: Help with choosing a new laptop
I've got a 2 year old Packard Bell Easy note laptop running at 2.4 Ghz with 4 Gig of RAM. Runs SO5 and FM12 easily. You shouldn't have any problems spending that sort of money on a laptop running the applications you want to.
