« on: October 30, 2006, 08:21:06 AM »
Hi I have installed all of the expansion packs on my new computer but when I start the game up i get this message...

'You need at least 256Mb of system memory to run Zoo Tycoon 2 (192 Mb detected).'

'1400MHz, 192MB'
'128M ATI 6 (0x5a62)'
'Realtek AC97 Audio (0x4370'

Can someone please help me? I don't know what to do :crying:

Sound like you need more memory. That's a computer problem, not a game problem. How much memory do you have?

you need to add more memoory to your system as you only have 192 and the game needs a minimum of 256.  the only way to do this would to be to buy more memory for your computer from a computer shop.  sorry.

the type of memory you need is RAM - this is basically your computer's short term memory. You should be able to go to a computer store and tell them what kind of computer you have and they should be able to tell you the type that will work with your computer.

have renamed this thread as so many threads named "help" is confusing at times
