TIBERIUM WARS: TROUBLESHOOTING

Before seeing the official minimum requirements, here is my laptop setup, which runs Tiberium Wars VERY well:

OS: Windows XP Professional 32-bit Edition
CPU: 1.4GHz Intel Celeron M (Yonah core)
RAM: 512 MB DDR2 533 single channel mode
Disk Drive: 8x or faster DVD drive
Hard Drive: 6.0 GB or more of free space (this is NOT a typo, this game is BIG!)
Video: ATI Mobility Radeon X1600 with 256MB VRAM
Sound: DirectX 9.0c compatible sound card (onboard HD Realtek Audio card)

It runs at 800x600 resolution with Ultra High Video Card settings (No Anti-Aliasing), and normal audio settings.  Laptops don't get very good support from EA (as you'll see below), so if your having trouble getting Tiberium Wars to run visit the forums and we'll do our best to help.  I would also like to note that this game is CPU intensive as well as GPU intensive; my Celeron 1.46 GHZ does have some trouble keeping up with the game when a lot of action is going on.

Taken from the official site, these are the absolute minimum requirements for playing Tiberium Wars:

OS: Windows XP, Windows Vista (32-bit; 64-bit versions of Vista are not supported)
CPU: 2.0GHz or high, or AMD equivalent, Vista - 2.2 GHZ
RAM: 512 MB or more, Vista - 1GB RAM or more
Disk Drive: 8x or faster DVD drive for retail SKUs, not required for digitally downloaded version
Hard Drive: 6.0 GB or more of free space
Video: GeForce4, ATI Radeon 8500 or greater (ATI Radeon 9200 and 9250 PCI, NVIDIA Geforce 4 MX cards not supported.). Windows Vista - NVIDIA GeForce 6100 or ATI Radeon 9500 or greater. Labtop versions of these chipsets may work but are not supported.
Sound: DirectX 9.0c compatible sound card
Network, Internet Multiplayer: 2 players (no voice support) – 56 Kbps Internet connection; 2-8 players (with voice transmission) – Broadband-class connection
