Port Royale 2 runs fine on asus netbooks

i read that port royale in some netbooks freezes sometimes , as it is one of my favourite strategy games (together with port royale 1) port royale 2 plays smoothly on my netbook. Till now played 8 hours game time , gathered in game 1 million gold and installed warehouses in 4 Caribbean cities without any freeze or problems.The game runs very fine on my asus eeepc in fullscreen in windows 7 ,like the game is specifically designed for running in netbooks .
Port Royale 2 takes place in Caribbean region in 17 century , you take the role of a free merchant in Caribbean. You can trade and build farms and other residential and industry buildings ,or you can be a privateer or even a pirate if you want.Till now i have not tested the battle system of the game as I'm playing as merchant the port royale game.

resolutions issues on netbook gaming

For many games, 1024*768 is the lowest resolution they can go. Since 1024*600 is the default resolution for a 10.1" netbook, those games are resulting on a netbook unplayable

Main reason that many games do not play on Netbooks

Netbook incompatibility on playing games
The main reason a game may not play on a netbook is due to the small screen size and the limited available resolution available on the tiny netbook screen. 

For example, if a game has been designed to fit a 1024 x 768 screen and the netbook doesn't provide this size, an error may result and fully depends on the screen size/resolution that the netbook provides.
