Garage Grunge Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 I'm interested in buying one also. I am in no way computer savvy, but have read the system requirements. It calls for a dualcore processor. Here are my specs, if anyone could let me know if It would work for me would be much appreciated. I assume the requirements are for 1080p. I was wondering if I could record at a lower resolution for it to work on my laptop. Any help would be much appreciated.

cdanteek Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 you serious?! so what can I do if I can't even record :s here is the attachment. Thanks for posting it. The CPU is under the minimum requirement, (Processor: AMD A8-3500M APU with Radeon HD Graphics (4 CPUs), ~1.5GHz) Because it's quad core you could if you want buy the product from the Roxio website if it doesn't work you have a 30 day return it policy.

Did you notice this is your DxDiag text? DxDiag Previously: Crashed in system information (stage 4). Re-running DxDiag with "dontskip" command line parameter or choosing not to bypass information gathering when prompted might result in DxDiag successfully obtaining this information. I've given you the best answer and solution I know of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michaels33 Posted January 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 it says 1.8 GHz processor speed, mine is 1.5 but its quadcore so surely that will be good enough? if not for 1080p, but surely for 720p it will be fast enough? and I do appreciate your replies pal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your AMD requires a minimum of 2.0 GHz and you are substantially under that one! (cores are irrelevant there isn't multitasking going on) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michaels33 Posted January 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 what about this spec processor: AMD Quad Core A8-4500M 1.90 GHz 4 MB L2 cache memory Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdanteek Posted January 8, 2013 Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 Minimum System Requirements: Microsoft Windows® 8, 7, Vista™ SP2, XP (SP3 for 32 bit & SP2 for 64 bit), Intel® Core 2 Duo Processor 1.8 GHz or AMD Athlon x2 64 2.0 GHz, 2GB RAM Guy's Roxio's minium system requirements are a guide, 2 cores are listed for both Intel and AMD CPU's. Your quad cores are lower in GHz but they are more powerful than 2 cores. What I said in post # 6. Because it's quad core you could if you want buy the product from the Roxio website if it doesn't work you have a 30 day return it policy. But no one here can guarantee it will run on you CPU's.
