Rebuilt Lenovo; not compatible w/ AC?

Anonymous

I have a little desktop Lenovo that I was looking at picking up inexpensively, but;
AC12 wont load from my disc (with Visuall C++ patches installed). It gets to 1% then thinks it's done. The log file says something about 'JVM not found'.
And AC17 trial won't load. It just gives me a javascript line at the bottom of the Explorer window.

I suspect the graphics card is not compatible. Am I correct? And if so, I'm hoping the graphics card isn't 'built-in'...

Here are the specs;
Lenovo.
Windows 7
Intel Core 2 Duo CPU;
E7300 @ 2.66 GHz
4 GB Ram
64 bit
Graphics; Intel Q45 / Q43 Express Chipset

thanks!

Sounds like a JAVA issue.
Uninstall JAVA and then reinstall with the version on the 12 installation disc.
Once you have Archicad installed hen you can update JAVA if you need to.
