A clarification: do not waste your time installing the DVD, there are compatibility issues and anyway compulsory migrated server to play. You must use the serial number in the jacquette to install from the network (Origin site).
This game works fine on my laptop entry VAIO (VAIO SVE1512C6E, windows 8.1, no 3D card, but the Intel HD chipset basic, and a Pentium B980 processor). I'm delighted!
