I also remember that my 2GHZ Pentium 4 had no issues running this game I don't see why a quad-core Intel and modern Radeon HD graphics card should even be coming out of their idle-states for it (just like all of my other old-ish RTS titles). I know this game had issues with the AMD dual-cores, but in those situations it ran far too fast - not too slow. I had to run it as Admin + XP SP3 to get it to start, and as I'm playing it will run along fine for a while, and then starts dragging lowering the resolution was helping at first, but it's getting progressively worse. It actually installed and ran on my Win7圆4 box, but the performance is horrible. So on a lark I decided to try this one out, since it's been top on my list of reasons to get an XP machine finished.
