Not actually solved but I just noticed something else infuriating with using this computer, they disabled the display settings AND the volume manager. If I can't play Spiral Knights, or listen to music, I might as well go back to using my laptop. Because I can't delete this topic, I'm just editing this part out and leaving the rest as it was.
Another thread had this exact same problem

""we were unable to initialize thegame's graphical display. Please take the following steps to ensure compatibility:

anyways my laptop screen is to small and the game wont full show how can i adjust the screen of the game

I have a Dell Studio1555 running windows 7 (64bit) with a processor: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU P8700 @ 2.53GHz and 4096 MB of RAM
My Video Card is: ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4570 wiht a display mode of 1920x1080 (32bit).

I have all fully updated drives and versions of JAVA.

I feel that my compouter is definitely up to par with the minimum system requirements, but please correct me if I am wrong.

Its really frustrating when my computer BSoDs or my video driver crashes and recovers and I end up having to restart the computer or the game, and wind back in Haven instead of where I previously was. It wastes energy and crowns every time.

There are some occasions where the client itself crashes and the game will pick up where it left off, but can't it handle system crashes the same way?

Its appears ever time I put my acc and pw, I cant play anymore? :/ Help plz, and thx!

The title is my Question..
Does this game run on 32-bit laptops?
Early thanks for the answers

Machine specs:
Win 7 64 bit, 8GB RAM, Athlon 6 core 3ghz proc, ATI 6970 2GB RAM using driver 11.3 from 3/29/2011.

At my office, everything renders fine, but at home on the above machine I'm getting constant flickering with my textures. In this screencap you can see it affecting my helm: http://img708.imageshack.us/i/flickering.png/

It however is also greatly affecting terrain and I can see all the individual triangles used for the geometry while the flickering goes on. I've tried changing all my graphics options but to no avail.

It seems that whenever I play the game freezes after a while. It freezes up and then I am unable to close the window.

I open task manager and try to end the program but it doesn't yield. I go to processes and tell it to stop to no avail.

Anyone know what could be wrong?

I would like to know where the configuration file is located in Linux (if any), to set a custom resolution and so. Thanks.

I'm trying to download the game but it freezes at random points. Like at 70% it stopped and didn't continue. And my internet is working fine. I'm on a mac, can anyone help?
