Cant I run into alot of issues picking up a preowned gaming rig?

Well this weekend I am gona run to Microcenter with a buddy and start looking. Kinda stoked, I have never had a "nice" gaming machine in my life. And even what you guys have tossed out as the "blueprints" of where I am going with this it will be about 13-16 times stronger than anything I have...

Wow alot of good info and ideas, at the very least I now kinda have a platform to set up in my mind to build off of. I really appreciate it! There is a place here, Microcenter and they sell some things pretty cheap, and alot of things can be purchased OEM. Without all the pretties. My buddy who...

I dont care for over-clocking, in fact I am looking for a PC to last me...well a couple years with minimal upgrades as I can afford. Form factors....my dear friend you sir just stepped outside of my knowledge, though I did do a quick search for it and read a lil about it. Even after reading...

I have the most experience in the past with Intel, and found it reliable. Dual or Quad, I can go either way. Of course a Quad I would prefer for the better performance.

:lol: I hope this is in the right place, and permitted. Seriously though. I use an Acer Mini my brother hooked me up with for cheap about a year ago...Hey Startopia works on it! hah but thats about as good as it gets. I recently dropped most of my savings into my CPT Personal Trainer...

quite the contrary. Walking mechs are actually the path the military is taking! I know I was in the army. See current treaded tanks are becoming ineffective. The amount of anti-armor weaponry out there is so vast, that your standard terrorist can take out a single multi-million dollar...

Anyone thought of this yet? I am sure some of you have seen the Warhammer 40K universe either through books, the tabletop game, or Dawn of War. It would be a crazy and neat idea if it was possible to make a modded game of Civ to do this with.

No, I just went into the options in the game and unchecked the "Fullscreen" option. Always worked till last night. I was like? WTH. Tried about 80 times. I think the normal game, and Warlords both would work fine though. Something about BTS. Is there a way to force it?

I was gona post a thread about BTS in here as well. I am using Win 7 and it used to run fine, now it WILL NOT go into my window mode. I only play in window cuz I just take turns here and there. Other than that it works fine except for maybe some odd collors while it first starts. But I have a...

I have done normal, and I am doing an Epic one(new to it) all I know is epic almost seeme to have went faster than normal. Could be because I am stuck on a continent with no way off...

Thanks, I will try the safe mode tonight and report back. Yeah the mouse goes over it. But also if I use Snip It(win 7 feature) it wont show(of course I just wanted to try lol). It also goes over my toolbar at the bottom. I will check the mouse over it issue, it is a very fine super pink line so...

Since I am new I have done 2 games last week, and plan to do 2 this week. Usually take turns while it is in window mode while playing Prototype or on a forum or watching tv.
