Will not, Launch 5 secs

[dunczr]

Hi guys bit of a problem..... I have recently just bought the Sturmovik: cliffs of Dover download, downloaded it on steam however i am too having problems as the game wont launch. Everytime i click play it comes up saying 'preparing to launch IL-Sturmovik then disappears and then the yellow symbol of an aircraft in a target appears for about 5secs and then disappears. Thats as far as iam getting.... any ideas why it wont load ? I have tried deactivating the resisdent shield on my AVG but it still wont load.

My laptop specs are;

AMD Turion tm 64 Mobile Technology MK-39
(2.0 GHz, 512KB L2 cache)
NVIDIA GeForce Go 6100
120GB HDD
1GB DDR2(support dual channel)

Can someone identify the problem here, is the performance of my computer too low? If so how can i upgrade it so the game will work ?

Help would be much appreciated !

You don't have the minimum required hardware unfortunately. This game is a real resource hog and I think you are well short of the RAM you need..let along the GPU capabilities..

Thanks, in that case iam I able to redownload the game onto another computer ? (one with higher specs), as this is the first game download ive bought online.

cheers !

Yes you are.

But do not overdo it (loading to a new computer too often) There is a limit on the computers which you are allowed to install the game. After that, it is one installation (on a new computer) per month I believe.
