*** I originally posted this in the Fallout 3 board, but thought that this one might actually be more fitting***
So, Fallout 3 crashed (only about the 3rd time for me) and during the "Send Error Report" message box, Windows ended up in like 240x180 (dunno what, really) resolution, with like 8 colors.
After restart, everything seems cool, but... never had that happen before.I'm running on Ultra w/ Q6600, 4850, 2gb ram, XP.Any ideas why that would happen, or just a fluke?
I'm fairly certain that this setup is kosher, but I wanted to see what people with a more expert opinion thought.
I just picked up a Corsair 550W PSU today, and I'm hoping that it's enough reliable power to run my modest rig.
The rest of the specs are:
- Q6600 @ 2.4
- HD4850 512mb
- Gigabye P35-DS3L
- 2gb DDR2
- Audigy2 ZS
- A few extra case fans, DVD-R drive, basic HDD, Wireless card
[QUOTE="rangler_95"]Thanks, I'm getting a new one next year with tax money. I just need one of the cards till next year.bungie93
Tax money? Do you realize you could afford a new card now if taxes were lower?
Worst. Post. Ever.
Industry pundits seem to be a little worried about Wii's lack of keeping 3rd party devs in the loop, as well. Introducing new hardware at E3 was apparently news to a lot of devs, which doesn't seem like proper protocol for embracing 3rd parties.
To me, it seems like Wii has come out of the gate very well, and the hype is still selling units as fast as they come out. I have nothing against Nintendo, and nothing against people who love their Wiis, I just haven't been able to get into any of the games. The last Nintendo game I bought was Twilight Princess for my Gamecube, and so far (and looking to the future), I'm pretty content with that.
