possible problems with graphic

Hello,

I'm considering to buy CoG, but possibly there might arise some problems with my PC, which has not what would be called a real graphic card.
Here are some data, which I got from a analysis done by PCmark:

Intel(R) 82852/82855 GM/GME Graphics Controller
Total local video memory: 7 Mb
Total local texture memory: 1 Mb
Total AGP Memory: 52 Mb

some other relevant data:
512 Mb RAM
1,4 GHz

Is it possible to run CoG on my PC? It needs at least 32 MB for Graphic, doesn't it?

Thanks to all who want to help me!

It will probably work fine with that video card, since it's able to get at least 32MB of memory by drawing on your system memory. However, it's definitely a weak video sub-system. On the positive side, if you have some kind of AGP slot, you could upgrade to a much better and still cheap card for less than $50.

I believe what you've got will run CoG though.
