I'm going to buy pro cycling manager but i am not sure if the game will work on my computer. I have checked through the minimum requirements and everything passes except for the fact that my graphics card doesnt have hardware t&l? Will it still work or is it a waste of money buying it? |

Hard to say without having any knowledge of your hardware.
You should list the hardware, otherwise we can`t help you.
Edit: It`s not necessary to open 3 threads.

... So, you have a pretty good computer, without hardware T&L? I don't buy that.
What's your specs? |

Just tell us the name of your CPU, graphic card, mainboard, RAM etc.
For example:
Quad Core 4x 2000Mhz,
4gb Ram
ATI 5770
etc.

Most computers that meet the CPU & Ram demands have a GFX card with T&L. T&L is 10 year-old tech.
Specifications. CPU/Processor, RAM, GFX Card, Etc?
Would look something like this:
i7 970 3.01 GHZ
8 GB Ram
Nvidia GTX 570
Etc. |

This is a laptop ;-) Not that it's usually a problem, but in this case, it is.
I wouldn't buy the game with this hardware. Even if you are able to run it, it would be on minimum settings, which wouldn't run very well, or look very good.
BTW: Something is up with your CPU/RAM info. If your CPU is overclocked to 3.3 Ghz on a laptop, it would be burning. And your RAM info is lacking the actual amount (X GB).

I believe PCM2010 has the same requirements as PCM2011, so no. I would suggest trying with PCM2009, which was a version from before Focus/Cyanide altered the 3D Engine - gameplay is still pretty good, though. |

No prob. Nothing worse than buying a product that you can't use. |

Mine is so strange I can run PCM10 off a Acer Ferrari One Netbook! Specs below:
Processor - AMD Athlon 64 X2 L310 - 1200 MHz
RAM - 2 GB
Hard Drive - 250 GB
Operating System - Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium
Optical Drive - None
Graphics - ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3200
So never say never. |

What saves you there is the ATI card. OP did not have such a card. |
