your video card does not meet armies of exigo minimum requirements

Just as the tittle says, i can't run armies of exigo because of that reason. I have a Lenovo g500 laptop. Amd radeon HD 8500M series graphics card. i3- 3110M 2.40GHz processor, 4gb RAM

Your system should be able to handle that game, it`s quiet old.

What is probably happening is the game was made before i3 cpu and Radeon HD 8500M chips were used.

That often happens with older games as they don`t recognize newer hardware.
And instead think it`s older hardware.


But I can assure you that game would run fine on your system.

You can try to run the install and setup in compatibility mode via windows to see if you can get it to work.
Simply right click on the install, or setup icon for the game.
And select properties, you should see the compatibility tab.
Select windows xp as the mode by the tick box then click apply.

Then right click again on the install or setup icon and select run as administrator.

Ok, so having windows 10, my graphics card uses the new crimson software. I'm not entirely used to using it, so after snooping around for a bit i found none of my applications where using my amd gpu even though i used the global setting... Now its running smoothly, thanks for the advice given. The compatibility setting actualy improved some fps.
