So I just got the digial download of Stranglehold and after an incredibly long installation time(it must've taken several hours for setup process to complete), the game was finally installed. I try to play it and it crashes every single time. I download new Nvidia drivers and instead of crashing it locks up after trying to start a new game.

I decided to look at the minimum system requirements and was astounded. I have a 7600GT and the game claims to require a 7800GT minimum! I figured that since I've been playing Company of Heroes, the Bioshock demo and Rainbow Six: Vegas that my system would be able to handle anything Stranglehold could throw at me. Now that I know the minimum specs, is Stranglehold relegated to being unplayable until I upgrade my memory and GPU? Terrible. It's moments like these that I'm actually compelled to just get a damn 360.

you should be able to run it. the minimum graphics card is NOT a 7800. so i dunno. all i can say is it's poor optimization.
