anyone? :-\mancalledhorse said:Hello all. I have purchased The Enhanced Edition and it doesn't run on this 3+ yers old laptop. I am intending to buy a new laptop (has to be a laptop unfortunately due to limited space) but I'm CLUELESS when it comes to computers, hardware and specs. I am in the UK and was wondering if any players could recommend a laptop off the following site that would run the game? My budget is fairly limited so if anyone could help me find the cheapest that would run it I would be absolutely appriciative!

your not missing anythingif it works with that switch you're fine eace:nedderdj said:So I looked around the forum and found a switch that enables the game to run. -dontForceMinReqs.This enables the game to run. I sent an email to tech support and hopefully they will be able to tell me what I am missing.In the mean time I can try out the game.
so you have a shortcut to witcher.exe? make a scrrenshot of the properties for it, where you can see the patch and the restit should work on patch 1.2/1.3/1.4ChrisWong said:Do we need the 1.2 patch or can the newer 1.4 patch work as well for the don't force the minimum requirements ???Because the -dontForceMinReqs doesn't work when writing it in C:\Program Files\The Witcher\System\Witcher.exe...I know a lot of people are having this probelm, and because of it, I haven't even played the game and I bought it over a year ago.

Yeah, did that. It doesn't work."C:\Program Files (x86)\The Witcher Enhanced Edition\The Witcher Enhanced Edition\launcher.exe" –dontForceMinReqs(That's where vistx64 puts the installation.)
