Halo 2 PC system requirements


Recommended Posts

I've heard from a friend that there will be a minimum Windows Experience Index value of 4.5 to run HALO 2 under Vista.

Does somebody of you know if this terrible info (my index is 4.3...) is right or not?

Thanks a lot

I guess he was right, looking at this minimum requirements gives you an idea of that 4.3 index thing, with these specs below probably sums it up to 4.3.

MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS

OS: Windows Vista?

Processor: 2 Ghz Pentium 4 class processor (or x64)

RAM: 1 GB

Hard Drive: 7 GB

Video Card: DX9 graphics card: WDDM driver, PS 2.0/32BPP, At least nVidia 6000 or ATI x700 or above

Online Multi-player: Internet connection for Games for Windows ? LIVE

Drive: DVD-ROM drive

and the official website of Halo 2 for PC http://www.microsoft.com/games/halo2/

i hope this helps you

i thought it was dx10 only. ::shrugs::

That would possibly be for Recommended Specs, they haven't revealed that yet.

Nah its "Vista" only. They wouldnt alienate there market that much by having a 2+ year old game using DX10 only so only the very early adopters of the hardware can play it.

That said theyre probably alienating enough customers already making it Vista only.

    • When will the Photos app be updated to remember the window size and position when reopened? They addressed this issue in a 2024 version of the app (though I can't recall the build number). Unfortunately, after that specific version, the problem persists! Please prioritise this fix in your K2 schedule. Additionally, the Snipping Tool has lost the ability to capture the Windows Taskbar starting from the 2024 version!
    • Same, never saw it on Android or iOS. Guess only some people got it *shrugs*
    • Anthropic pulls Fable 5 and Mythos 5 after US export control order by Pradeep Viswanathan In April this year, Anthropic launched the Claude Mythos Preview frontier model with state-of-the-art cyber and coding capabilities for a select set of companies around the world. After preparing appropriate guardrails, early this week, Anthropic launched Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5, its most capable AI models. Claude Fable 5 is for general users and comes with strict safeguards, while Mythos 5 is designed with fewer safeguards for cybersecurity and biology use cases. Today, Anthropic abruptly suspended access to its Fable 5 and Mythos 5 AI models for all customers after receiving an export control directive from the US government. The company received the directive from the government today at 5:21 p.m. ET, and the received letter did not provide any details regarding the national security concern. Anthropic understands that the government became aware of a method to bypass, or “jailbreak,” Fable 5, which might be the reason behind the directive. The order was issued under national security authorities and requires the company to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether they are inside or outside the United States. The restriction also applies to foreign national employees working at Anthropic. As a result, the company has disabled both models for all customers to ensure compliance. Access to previous Anthropic models like Opus and Sonnet is not affected by this government order. The company highlighted that it had developed strong safeguards to reduce the possibility that Fable is misused for tasks related to cybersecurity. In fact, many developers are complaining that the safeguards are going overboard. Additionally, the company worked with the US government, the UK AISI, multiple private third-party organizations, and internal teams to red-team Fable’s safeguards for thousands of hours. Finally, Anthropic noted that no testers have yet been able to find a universal jailbreak on Fable 5. As expected, Anthropic disagrees that a narrow potential jailbreak should lead to the recall of a commercial model used by hundreds of millions of people. It warned that applying this standard across the AI industry could effectively halt new frontier model deployments. Anthropic concluded by mentioning that it is working to restore access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 as soon as possible and plans to share more details within the next 24 hours.
