Need help redownloading ESO on new laptop

i recently wanted to redownload on my new laptop, which plays most games pretty well although eso will not launch past the play button, all I will see is a black screen and rotating circle.
here is the fix

ESO plays on relatively low end computers but I suspect your laptop is just too low end for the game. That CPU is best for web surfing and light productivity.

ive played rust and such on this new computer, its just eso that refuses to work

Not familiar with rust but it lists a dual core at 2GHz as minimum. Your CPU is below that.

both require the same minimum, yet I am able to play rust with no falter.

Per Steam, Rust has no requirement for dual core. It just says 2GHz minimum. They are different games and I doubt Rust is as taxing on the CPU side as ESO is.

I will say that ESO currently has an issue where it will not play on low settings since Monday's Homestead release. So, you should wait till they patch that before even trying.

is this youre laptop?

PC Minimum System Requirements*:
Operating System: Windows 7 32-bit
Processor: Intel i3 or AMD 3870 generation processors or higher
System RAM: 3GB
Hard Disk Space: 85GB free HDD space
GPU: Direct X 11.0 compliant video card with 1GB RAM (NVIDIA GeForce 460 or AMD Radeon 6850)
Sound: DirectX compatible sound card
Internet: Internet Broadband Connection**

Your computer doesn't meet the minimum specs to run the game. I know that some games will still run. But, this game is CPU intensive and you are nowhere near meeting the minimum of an i3 at 2.0gz
