Jawsome Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 I got windows 7 and boot camp running on an older mac of mine. Here are the specs- 2Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo 2.5 gb 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM Graphics: Intel GMA 950 I got the game installed totally fine with no problems. When I go to launch the game (after logging in and clicking play) the screen flashes and the game fails to start up. Is this graphics card just unable to play this game? I also have a second mac, newer, and I'm wondering if it's worth my time getting boot camp and windows up and running on it as well, to test that. Here are the specs for the newer mac: 2.4 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3 Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce 320M Will the game run via windows 7/boot camp on this machine? Please help I've sunk a lot of hours into trying to get this up and running... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HazardOOI Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 No, you will not run the game. Bioware will technically always run the game. Unless you want to consider "top" players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Celestry Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 For the most part you need a 2.5 ghz cpu dual core or higher, and an mid or higher level video card from the last 3 years. Which is roughly an ATI 4600 series or higher, or an Nvidia 350 series or higher. OF course older high end GPU's will run it (like an Nvidia 88000, but this is highly variable. read this.. http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/star-wars-gaming-tests-review,3087.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeadRabit Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 Same problem here with Macbook 2,1 with Intel GMA 950. Just crashes at start-up and I'm really bummed about it. I was hoping for it to at least be playable for crafting. I have been scouring the internet to see if there is some way to fix it but it seems that it is simply incapable of running the game. If anyone somehow gets it to run, I would love to know how. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
