Zoo Tychoon on NC10

[adamdoona]

I have an old PC game (Zoo Tychoon) and am about to buy an NC10.
The minimum specs for the game are listed as are

XP - 128 ram
233 MHz processer
250 Mb hard drive
4 Mb / 2d Video card

Will this game run?

Let me think

Theoretically, yes:

1. *The NC10 has 1 GB RAM which is ~8 x the minimum requirement of 128 MB RAM
   *The NC10 has a 1.6 GHz processor which is ~7 x the minimum requirement of a 233 MHz processor
   *The NC10 has a 160 GB HDD, so the minimum requirement of 250 MB HDD is only ~0.16% of the total HDD capacity.
   *The NC10 uses shared memory so it can take up to 256 MB of the computers RAM, so a 4 MB requirement should not be a problem as it's only ~1.6% of the total graphics memory capability.

As long as your game will run under Windows XP and doesn't require a CD/DVD drive, it shouldn't be a problem :?

Like TC says, I would think there is a high chance it will work. But to be 100% sure it's always good to get someone to confirm it. But I imagine it can be bought quite cheaply so might be worth a gamble.

I have an old Zoo Tycoon but as far as I remember I always had to put the disc in.
