    My Dell laptop (latitude) will not support Revit MEP2010. I keep crashing while zooming in and out. The message from Autodesk says it may be the video card or graphics driver? Has anyone had this problem and if so, were you able to upgrade and still be able to use your laptop to run Revit?

    Under Systems Properties it says:

    Intel CPU
    T2400@ 1.83 GHz
    1.83GHz, 1.99 GB RAM

    What about the video card?

    The video card should work as it is, however an upgrade might prove useful. Just don't get a "Gaming" card. Performance will go down.

    That RAM is a bit low. I think 2009 gave a minimum of 1GB, but I would get atleast 4GB. There are technical sheets (Required Hardware and Recommended Hardware) on the autodesk website.
