If I can play the demo on my computer, does that mean that I can play the full version of the game without any problems?

My laptop is designed for gaming but tech requirements change rather quickly with PC games. This is what I have:

Inspiron XPS Gen 2 Intel® Pentium® M Processor 770 (2.13 GHz/2MB Cache/533MHz FSB)
Memory 2GB Dual Channel DDR2 SDRAM at 533MHz 2 Dimm 2GB2D
Video Card 256MB NVIDIA® GeForce(tm) Go 6800 Ultra NV256
Hard Drive 80GB Hard Drive 80GB

The CoH Minimum System Requirements are:

System: 2.0GHz Intel Pentium IV or equivalent
RAM: 512 MB
Video Memory: 64 MB
Hard Drive Space: 6500 MB

The CoH Recommended System Requirements are:

System: 3.0GHz Intel Pentium or equivalent
RAM: 1024 MB
Video Memory: 256 MB
Hard Drive Space: 6500 MB

I remember seeing a website that evaluated your computer to see if you could play a game. Anyone remember what site that is. Thanks.

I believe that if the demo runs, it should run the actual game just fine.

On a related note (and I don't mean to threadjack), I have a Geforce Ti4600. It doesn't run the demo, even though the readme explicitely mentioned it does. Inquiring with the good people of Relic turned out that it was a mistake within the demo code. The real game should run just fine with this card.
Is there anyone with a Geforce ti 4600 or 4200 that can confirm or deny this, though?

You can run the game fine. The final demo is representative of the retail version.

Thanks guys. It took about 8 hours to download the demo last night. When I get home tonight I'll finaly have a chance to test it out.

I'm looking forward to it.

Be warned - amount of foliage can chug a system real quick, so if you're having problems crank down the detail on those trees. Second singleplayer mission, I'm looking at you. :)
