sabreeyes Damn if you have been playing with onboard vid, hate to see you with a good card Haven't been on COD4 too much lately, the screen-flicker gives me epileptic siezures (not really, but a headache anyway).... but you have motivated to tough it out & come back more often & give you some "Ferret-love". Hopefully a better card will let me sprint more without running into walls all the time lol

Every man, woman, and child in the United States just got one from Congress on Monday..... we're good for a while, but thanks for the thought..... http://hosted2.ap.org/APDEFAULT/386c25518f464186bf7a2ac026580ce7/Article_2011-08-01-Debt%20Showdown-America%20Reacts/id-b7c2eb0931b44e6eba1758397571e4f4 http://blogs.wsj.com/washwire/2011/08/03/obama-before-campaign-donors-defends-debt-deal/

NightmareXI the 5750 will be enough to run the actual games on low maybe even some medium settings... like Merlin said have a look at the dimensions of the old psu and go for a 500 watts that will be enough.... and disable the onboard after that not to cause trouble Just to be sure I understand.... I *should* disable the on-board card if I put the new card in? My brother said the same thing, but the guy at Geek Squad (when we tried to recover my old system image) said that disabling on-board cards will mess up my "driver hierarchy" (or something along those lines) and bug out the OS - and that I should let them run in parallel. The Geek Squad guy seemd to know what he was talking about, but I dunno. Sorry to be Mr. 50 questions.... but I am NOT a techie and all I want to do is play games without having to get a degree in computer science or pay someone $150 to plug in a card & load a driver or two. Thanks for help, much appreciated!!

Gonna filet those carps for sammiches? Better boil the worms out of 'em first.... I went fishin' Center Hill lake (near Nashville TN) last week, got a few Walleyes & smallies.... but the Budweiser "buzzfish" were the only keepers (we had a cooler full them). -
You know the recession is getting bad when....

hxtr damn them are good.. hahahaha I am so going to steal this. Actually I stole them too, but now the larceny charge is on you. -
I got a pre-declined credit card in the mail. Wives are having sex with their husbands because they can't afford batteries. CEO's are now playing miniature golf. Exxon-Mobil laid off 25 Congressmen. A stripper was killed when her audience showered her with rolls of pennies while she danced. I saw a Mormon with only one wife. If the bank returns your check marked "Insufficient Funds," you call them and ask if they meant you or them. McDonald's is selling the 1/4 ouncer. Angelina Jolie adopted a child from America. Parents in Beverly Hills fired their nannies and learned their own children's names. My cousin had an exorcism but couldn't afford to pay for it, and they re-possessed her! A truckload of Americans was caught sneaking into Mexico. A picture is now only worth 200 words. When Bill and Hillary travel together, they now have to share a room. The Treasure Island casino in Las Vegas is now managed by Somali pirates. And, finally.... I was so depressed last night thinking about the economy, wars, jobs, my savings, Social Security, retirement funds, etc., I called the Suicide Hotline. I got a call centre in Pakistan, and when I told them I was suicidal, they got all excited, and asked if I could drive a truck.

The card I have is a Radeon 5750. From what I understand, a decent mid-level card that *should* run most games OK. Certianly a lot better than the factory on-board card in there now. The 5750 card requires 450 W for a one-pin connector, the pc has like 275 available. *REALLY* not wanting to load up everything again if it freezes Win7 up again..... if I did get a better power supply, would it be a problem to run that card with the on-board factory card that is in there now? (would they run parallel or should I shut the old one off?) Again, I'm not a hardware techie, but I think my processor is plenty fast enough but being held hostage by an average card. Thanks for help, my friends.....

SgtHarryWeezer Ferret are you from Kingsport??? Yessir, grew up just across the street from Sevier Middle School (Yadkin Street) from '78 to '87, played basketball for Buck Van Huss & Football for Coach Wilson at Dobyns-Bennett.... grad. class of '87. I did have my picture in the ol' Times-News sports section a couple times (for H.S. sports). I worked at "the Eastman" for a couple summers while in college at UT. We used to cruise Center Street & Stone Drive & Ft. Henry Mall trolling for chicks. The ones that came down "to the city" from Gate City & Virginia were easy to pick up, but hard to look at. Parents still live there, I get back there every few months..... I will likely be going to a few DB games this fall with my Dad & Ken Wright (old D-B supporter & lawyer).

LittleTooT Ferret, you will need at least ATI 5400 and up card ( not sure what that is in Imperial= NVideia) + probably a min 500w ps, hope this helps. TooT Roger that, tx... it is a Radeon 5750 card, requires 450w & I had 275 available. It was a forkin' disaster. Next time we'll check that first Do you think it would be a prob (if I got a better power supply) to run that 5750 card "parallel" to the on-board card?

I was thinking about getting Crysis2 or BlackOps..... would my rig run it? Dell DX4850 http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2383241,00.asp Core i5 Processor 6 GB memory Intel GMA HD "on-board" graphics card This rig runs COD2 on high graphic settings like a champ, but struggles with COD4, even on low graph settings.... playable, but not good. My brother got me a sweet Radeon grahpics card for it, but later found out (after a catastrophe) that the power supply is too wimpy to run the card. I read on the above review, that that it is a decent rig, but the power supply is a "vagina". It hung up Windows 7 TOTALLY after card installation (wound up having to "re-image" the whole !*@$!*@#$&% hard drive ) . Even after taking the new card out, it wouldn't boot. I don't know much about video cards/ hardware, and a little afraid to try to put in another power supply for the new card & having to re-do my whole damned hard drive again..... what a pain in the fargin' ass. Question - could I run Crysis2 or BlackOps on a playable level with this current rig?

Do I need to upgrade my 'puter so I can run Cryisis2, and attract new players with my spamming charm & hi-levl skilz? (sarcasm, btw) But on a serious note, techies.....

I was there..... I was 12 years old living in Kingsport, TN - I was lucky enough to have cable in my room, and I DID watch the first couple hours of MTV with a couple friends. Our local cable company promoted it. I remember one of the videos played in the first hour was "Love Stinks" by J. Geils Band. I watched many, MANY hours of MTV (before it starting sucking ass), and remember my parents telling me to "turn that trash off and go to bed". But that wasn't a problem.... Good ol' Martha Quinn was the involuntary recipient of a few Ferret "pillow-humps" in those days

Shit.... I'll have to start shootin' again to get back on there.

Dark Asylumn WHITEBOY Ferret Lol.... that's how I play most maps anyway..... I'm up for it. except theres a catch....we all have to bash, while you'll be the only player with a gun that should make it even you know he started bashing after he mastered and got bored with the gun lmao Well honestly, I've never been able to figure out how to get the damned safety off.....

GorillaXI Just got done uploading the video I took of one of the matches at paintball....I had a blast, but damn it was hot. 90 degrees, running around in pants and a mask makes you tired fast. We plays for 3 hours, but like I said, it was a blast. I couldn't think of a better bunch of Idiots to have as friends. Did you guys (as usual) give the admins their hacks so they could win by 50 kills? Paintball hacks would be tough to come by, but I have faith in you idiots.

2_MANY_BEERS I get up and go for a beer and smoke every 15 minutes so I'm good to go. LOL +100 LOL!!!! I resemble that remark. Actually, I run out to da g'rage between maps. Funny, but if my score on a map really sucks, I'll go into "spec" for the last couple minutes of a map to buy some extra time.....

Just had one of those day at work, this little tune sets me back straight I think I still have hearing loss from jamming this at ear-crunching levels in my car in high school:

Sometimes you do come across pretty sharply & condescendingly.... in my first interaction with you - you snapped on me pretty hard, when I was just self-deprecatingly giving a shout-out/ respect to BigMeanDean about his legendary knifing skills. Actually you were pretty much an ass at first, but later comments kinda softened the whole thing to friendly, humorous jabs. It takes us Yanks a while to "get" British humor..... but I think I understand it better now. People are the generally the same, but cultural differences DO exist. I don't think you are a bad guy at all, but I think maybe you assume the positive aspects need no comment, and feel the need to more verbosely comment on the negative. Having played against you for a while now, I think you are all right..... I WOULD sincerely like to see you hang around. But honestly, my first impression was skewed by the sarcasm & negativity. Just take the time to be friendly & positive, and sometimes negative comments can go unspoken (we Yanks are a little different in that regard), and everything will be fine. But hat-tip for the post..... appreciated.
