    Hello I have searched every ware but cannot fined anything to help this problem. Anyhow I got Gears of War for PC 3 days ago. My laptop is good but only have 512MB RAM (just ordered 1GB RAM) and it works fine exsept for that fact it looks like a PS2 game and lags a bit when playing but playable.

    Anyhow I just got to Act 2 on Casual (TICK TICK BOOM) and at the start of the level it works fine until I get around the corner (just before It asked me if I want to go right or left) The screen goes pink and black so I can hardly see anything. So this makes it unplayable am guessing this is something to do with my RAM being low or is it? Can someone please help.

    you can also look inside yourcomputer and just see what cards are in there
