Guitar Hero on PC Solved/Closed

Question

Hello,
I bought Guitar Hero III (PC version) for my daughter. when she tried to upload it on our LT (hp pavilion zv5000), it didnt work b/c, among other reasons: we have Windows XP (not XP SP2), not the correct video card, etc. this did not occur to me when I bought it for her (now u know her friend's play station version & really loved it.

Your advice would be great. Thanx.

Hi, Judy
You can find the system requirements at his address: http://www.aspyr.com/product/game_specs/85

After comparing those major factors, I'm afraid her laptop is not capable of playing the game. Those graphics are really holding you back. You might want to see if you can return the game (but from past experience, someplaces don't like returning computer games because of people making illegal copies and what not) unless you have another computer you can put it on.
 
You could always try seeing if you can turn the graphics settings down in the game, but still I don't think the laptops graphics can even handle everything on low settings.

If you have further questions, feel free to ask.

I wound up in the same boat...

Aspyr thinks the average user has a Super PC, and decided to make somewhat of an 'emulator' to easily port over GH3 to the PC. You can't take it back, and Aspyr will not refund your money... but there is hope!

Frets on Fire (http://fretsonfire.sourceforge.net/

It works 100% with the USB GH3 controller for the PC, the program works on all platforms of PCs.

And you can create your own music via .mp3 or .ogg

Hi I was wondering if any Guitar is compatible with any GH Game. The guitar I want to get says its only compatible with GH1,2,3. I was told that all GH games should work with nearly all the guitars out there today.
