i guess the system requirements were minimal windows xp... You'll need a better pc to play rct 3 demo...

Sad day for me, I just got my brand spankin new p4 comp, and it won't run smooth, I even set it to the lowest graphics setting on everything (i.e. turned off all special thingines, ect...) and still runs slow....a sad day for me indeed...

My framerates seem to slow down everytime I play. I get no water reflections either. (except for the default-sky)

I have found out that the reason that you have no water relections is due to your Video Card. I have a G-Force 64Mb card and I can't get water reflections neither. So I have decided to upgrade to a ATI Radeon 128MB card it costs like 99.00 so if you have to cash upgrade I have heard from someone else who upgraded to the ATI and they said the game ran and looked a whole lot better plus he had the reflections in the water!!

^ I know it's a graphics card problem. BTW, I think the nintendo gamecube uses that... Maybe I can take it out and put it in the comp, lol, j/k.

But I don't have the $$$ to upgrade, maybe get it for christmas, lol.

Yep! I just got a Visiontek 9200 Xtasy 256mb card (powered by ATI) and the demo runs smoothly at all the high settings with water reflections set to reflect everything. I got the card from Circuit City for $130. And there is a mail-in rebate for $30, so in the end it was only $99. Definetly worth it seeing as all my other games run much better as well. I now have refections in the water of Jurassic Park: Operation Genesis too. Pretty awesome.
