Has anyone every tried to see if GW2 will run on Windows 8.1 with only 2gb of ram? Does it work fine with the new updates? Last time I played few months ago it worked fine with only 2gb of ram on a different notebook but some reason on this new notebook it won’t run. Basically because of something about this notebook the setup won’t let me download the game. My other notebook that has 4GB of ram downloads fine. But what’s strange is that the HP notebook that only had 2GB worked back few months ago.

What's strange is that if I used my other notebook thats has 4gb and running windows 7 it went to the screen where it says install GW2. The toshiba one didn't even get to that part. That's why I thought it was because of the ram is only 2gb. I did even try to download it and it does download so I can only think its the toshiba notebook.


I really need help on this guys.
 
There's more to a computer than just ram.

Since they're notebooks they probably have APUs, the 2gb one possibly has a weaker one, and thus can't really play it.

But windows uses about 1.3-5 GBs of ram on it's own. And GW2 is an MMO so it's processor and memory heavy because it has to keep track of all the players.
