Recommended System Requirements

Please note: You may need to update the drivers for your system hardware for the game to function properly. Driver files are often obtainable via the web sites of their manufacturers, links are availible on the menu to the right of this FAQ.

We did not test Tomb Raider 2 with laptop/notebook systems and therefore we cannot guarantee compatibility. Due to the variety of hardware configurations that ship with today's laptop systems, it would be impossible to configure a game that would work with all of them. Many laptop/notebook computers are limited in their ability to be used as a gaming machine. This is because of memory configurations, their micro-channel architecture, port configurations (i.e. no place for a joystick) and sound systems that are primarily designed to be used with productivity software.

The other common problem is that laptop systems will attempt to compress the traditional version of the standard 101-function keyboard (found on almost all desktop systems) into a much smaller keyboard configuration. This is usually done by relying on multifunction keys that allow the user to assign different functions to the same key. Unfortunately, this has been known to cause problems with our games.

Additionally, Tomb Raider 2 is not supported using compressed hard drives, or Windows emulators. Although the game might run, its performance and stability will be questionable.

We strongly recommend that you have at least 500mb free on your system at all times for the correct operation of Windows and the relevant game software.
