I am unable to check the link, if you could copy/paste the specs i would be happy to advise. That being said, as long as it has a discreet graphics card, it can run star trek online.

Copied from the site:

VISION E2 Technology by AMD

AMD E-Series E-350* dual-core accelerated processor
For efficient system processing. AMD AllDay™ Power technology to extend battery life.

3GB DDR3 memory

AMD Radeon HD 6310 discrete-class graphics

Based solely on the benchmarks done by our fine friends here at toms ( http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/e-350-motherboard-b... ) I really wouldn't recommend this system, assuming gaming is a priority.

Find something with a true discreet graphics card, and considering its best buy you can likely find a better system for less dollars.

I wish i could browse around for a few minutes and give you some recommendations, if possible find yourself a dual core sandy bridge intel based laptop with a discreet graphics card.

Sorry i can't be of more help atm.

These are the minimum system requirements for Star Trek Online. I'll also add that these are specs for a desktop PC. Laptops are generally less powerful than their desktop counterparts.

OS: Windows XP SP2 / Windows Vista / Windows 7 (32 or 64-bit)
CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo 1.8 Ghz or AMD Athlon X2 3800+
Memory: 1GB RAM
Video: NVIDIA GeForce 7950 / ATI Radeon X1800 / Intel HD Graphics
Sound: DirectX 9.0c Compatible Soundcard
DirectX: Version 9.0c or Higher
HDD: 8GB Free Disk Space
Network: Internet Broadband Connection Required
Disc: 6X DVD-ROM


The AMD E-350 is 1.6GHz, just slightly below the minimum of 1.8GHz. Not too bad, but I don't know how the AMD E-Series CPU compares to an AMD Athlon X2.

The major problem would be the Radeon HD 6310. Sure it is technically 5 generations newer than the Radeon X1800, but the Radeon X1800 was a powerful card compared to the wimpy Radeon HD 6310.

You need to spend more than $330 on a laptop if you want to play games. At least double that, at the minimum just to get decent performance for casual games; not fairly demanding games (for laptops) like Star Trek Online.
