Issues unresolved

"Your CPU does not reach minimum requirements" error at launch

The CPU check fails on some CPU models that are higher than the minimum system requirements.[1][2]

"Fatal Error: Your system memory (RAM) does not meet the minimum specification" error at launch

Ghosts has a hard-coded check requiring 6 GB of system memory (see system requirements).
For systems with shared memory the allocated amount may need to be reconfigured to allow 6 GB of exclusive system memory.
For temporary fix see Disable RAM check
