I have an Intel dual core laptop- I'll try sticking the demo on that and see how it goes.

Its the older generation, though. (Core Duo, not Core 2 Duo).
I run se5 on my on my 1.83Ghz Core Duo Gateway M285-E tablet and it works fine.

I have a S3 Savage4 chip, DAC of S3 SDAC, 32 MB, 1280x1024 450 meg Pentium III

On my work laptop, it runs a lot better. I am getting 50-60 FPS pretty often. After this, I am scared to even load it on my Win95 Cirix 166+
I am not sure either of those even meet the minimum requirements so it is not a surprise they don't work lol.

These are the official and I think they are to low even:

Pentium 500 MHz or better class machine
Windows 98/ME/2000/XP
128MB RAM
1024x768 or better screen resolution
16bit color or better color depth
500 megs hard drive space
A video card with 3D acceleration
DirectX 8.1 or higher
A sound card capable of supporting MP3 and DirectSound playback. Sound card must be DirectX 8.1 (or better) compatible.

Notice you need directx 8.1 or higher and at least a 500mhz processor. You video card only supports Directx 6 I am a bit surprised the game even starts. heh
