Your video card is going to be a the limiting factor here. According to the sys reqs you need at least: 128 MB Video RAM or greater with DirectX9 Vertex Shader/ Pixel Shader 2.0 support (NVIDIA GeForce 6600 or ATI Radeon 9800 or better) The Mobile Intel® 4 Series Express Chipset Family supports vertex shader 4.0 so you're good there. The performance won't be the best but it should work.

Pay money for a premium account? Or you could try using a different browser, resetting internet options etc.

I hope your joking too. A Defrag should only be done when a drive is fragmented. Windows will allow you to analyze the drive before you defrag so you can tell if it's fragmented. You can actually decrease the longevity of your hard drive by defragmenting it too much. Fragmentation does not occur by simply installing a large program. It occurs when you Delete and create many different files of many different sizes many times. That is what causes fragmentation. fragmentation will occur more often when you delete a large program than when you install one.

I'd just buy the ps2, you should be able to find one for pretty cheap.

A game with just good graphics is fun for about 10 mins. A game with good depth, gameplay, depth and story can be fun for an indefinite amount of time.

King's Quest 5 for PC was so rediculously hard I hated it, but still played it with a walk through... until I got to the point where I was supposed to through a shoe at a rat but didn't and had to start all over because we hadn't saved it. I gave up on it at that point.

Wtf really?? holy **** i didnt no that [QUOTE="smc91352"]

I think someone said you get a discount if you use Bing when buying off of newegg.com.

smc91352

Are you being sarcastic or did you really not know?

I think you get like 6% off.

Wow I guess Bing sucks so bad they have to pay people to use it. They did a deal something like this a few years ago with MSN messenger. I wonder if it actually results in more people using their services.

I just had a laptop die with video card problems and a replacement card cost more than the laptop. It's so sad, it'd be a cinch to fix if it was a desktop.

I'm not entirely sure I'd actually purchase it but the new nokia netbook looks very promising. It has a very rugged design and 12+ hrs of batter life. http://conversations.nokia.com/2009/09/02/more-nokia-booklet-3g-specs-emerge-at-nokia-world-09/

[QUOTE="bleedingsouls"]

I wanted to know if I could just follow this guide to build a computer should I get the computer to run? because I have no experince building computers at all and am very intrested and thinking about taking if for a career in college. Was thinking that this would be a good thing to do just to see if I enjoy it or not? I was planning to go to my local Pc shop (they sell alot of the same stuff newegg does) and build it from there. basically want to go there and see if they can give me relativly the same price (shipping is a killer,and Paypal transfer takes like 2 weeks alone. plus probally another 3-6 weeks for delevery on parts from newegg.)

i was thinking the same

The local PC shops around where I live charge significantly more than Newegg for their parts. So much so that it's cheaper to go with Newegg even with the shipping and everything. Plus Newegg has a much better selection. You could save money this way if you purchased used parts but then you wouldn't have as nice of a system.
