Tech Question

[mookdog]

 My computer has an Intel Pentium M 1.60 GHz processor w/591 MHz,512MB RAM
 It seems to me that these meet the minimum reqs for AH.
 Can anyone tell me if this is correct?And if so,why does my Frame Rate drop to 0 in offline practice?I thought
it was my connection,maybe not.

Memory is a big one.  Bumping that to 1GB at minimum, 2 GB or more preferably will help as both the game relies on loading a lot of textures/poly into memory (both graphics and system memory).  If you run short of system memory and have to utilize virtual memory (disk based paging space) your system will behave very poorly.

 If I seem compu-dumb,I am.
