You would have to get a faster CPU but your motherboard would have to be
capable of supporting it.

I forget what the requirements right now, but I have an AMD Athlon XP
2200 (1.79 Ghz )
Maybe my CPU isn't fast enough. Are you planning on playing this one
Murray? Its in EB but so far, Dreamfall isn't, though I don't suppose
you are interested in it because of action sequences.?
Dreamfall seems to have more strict requirements than Paradise from what
I can recall. I don't know if my system would run on Dreamfall.

on website there are other requirements:
Pentium or AMD equal or greater than 800 Mhz
Geforce2/Radeon 7000 with 64Mb

I think 1.5Ghz processor is a requirement if you don't meet videocard
requirement (no hardware acceleration)

so, if it's your case, it's better to replace your old videocard

Me neither by the looks of things. I have an AMD Athlon XP 2200 (1.79
ghz) but my video card is ATI 9000 Pro with 128MB. When in EB yesterday
I checked Dreamfall box and it says ATI 9500 and up is supported, so
thats not me. My video card might work, but I am not buying a game which
I don't know if it will run on my system, and I have no intention of
buying a new video card.
I think Paradise would run OK on my system. On the box it says, ATI 8500
video card and up. Its more expensive though, so I will leave it for
now.
I bought Keepsake yesterday at EB, and it works fine on my computer and
is cheaper than the other two. I played the demo so had an idea about
the game. I like it OK so far. The graphics are beautiful. Acting seems
OK to me. A lot of running around though. There is a small map but its
not one that takes you where you want to go. Its just a guide. But itts
a nice point and click old fashioned type adventure game. I like the
interface and the built in hints system, which is very useful to find
out where to go next. But I am early in the game, so will see how things
go.
