Hi everyone. I just bought Dragon Age Inquisition and recently also bought a new laptop. Unfortunately, I didn't check out the specs of either before buying them, and so I'm not sure if my computer CAN run this game. It seemed to install last night but I could never get it to actually begin after clicking on the New Game button. Today, nothing at all happens when I click the Origins icon, or the Dragon Age Inquisition icon, and so I'm totally puzzled.
I got my specs from Belarc, and so I'd really appreciate it if some kind soul would take a look at them and let me know if this laptop can run the game or if I'm out of my league.
Thanks SO much in advance,
Tracy (who someday will learn to wait when buying games and/or computers and make sure they are compatible!)
