hmm, i don't know. you could try spending $20 for an Audigy2 Value and see if it helps. *shrugs* and if you have integrated sound (combined with an older computer), it could be that your processor is getting bogged down a bit trying to run the game....  [Read More]

actually, you don't have a true video card installed on your computer. you see, the Radeon Xpress 200 is nothing more than a Radeon X300 chip that's on your motherboard. in other words: integrated graphics. integrated graphics currently don't even be...  [Read More]

well, i'm still not quite so sure as to why some people don't like the combat in Kotor. it was simple and elegant. so it wasn't a button mashing affair like JA or JO, what's the big deal?? no elegance, and you hardly had any control over exactly what...  [Read More]

hmm, well your problem sounds like it could be exclusive to the international versions (i'm assuming you don't have the American version), although perhaps not. *shrugs* anyways, could you describe the crash in a bit more detail. like, for example,...  [Read More]

the graphics engine, though somewhat optimized, isn't really designed for speed like a FPS-oriented graphics engine. my friend just got a brand spankin' new GeForce 7800 GTX and still only managed 45 fps with maxed out settings. and yes, the framerat...  [Read More]

hmm, sounds similar to a problem i had on my old computer. i'd load the game and get to the main menu only to face a black screen with the menu music playing in the backround. i never really figured it out after reinstalling the game, getting the lat...  [Read More]

generally, i look at it this way: if your not going to buy a video card straight from Nvidia or ATI, then you go with BFG for Nvidia and Sapphire for ATI. and since both of those can sometimes run cheaper, its just icing on the cake. :)...  [Read More]

i'm with D333 on this one. BFG is usually one of my first recommendations for Nvidia-based manufacturers. but not everybody's perfect, so you're just one of the odd ones out. hehe......  [Read More]

sounds like it was indeed a defective card, and there's a multitude of explanations which i won't bother with. but if you have the same problem with the new card, i'd just try getting the same card from a different manufacturer and overclocking it yo...  [Read More]

well, unless you go through and wipe your HD clean or run through a thorough registry/HD cleanup, you'll likely find that the easiest solution is to just simply get a new card. the point is that a lot of things can change on a computer in the span of...  [Read More]

i'm thinking the PSU requirements will be similar to the GeForce 7800: 350W min. for a single and 450W min for a CrossFire (duel cards) setup. although i'd recommend getting an additional 50W just in case. ;)...  [Read More]

i'm also looking forward to this launch for two reasons: first, i think i can trust ATI to put out a great card, and second, it might mean lower prices on the GeForce 7800 series (in case the X1K's suck). the only thing that gets me is why ATI snubbe...  [Read More]

i don't think its either a graphics issue nor a driver issue given that you've been able to run the game for quite some time beforehand. my theory is that you've encountered a wierd bug and need to try going back to a previous game save. as for gett...  [Read More]

well, i'd go ahead and get the patch due to the many bug fixes it makes, but i'd recommend getting the patch from a third-party in *.exe form instead of the autopatcher. check out sites like dlx.gamespot.com and www.filefront.com) for the self-extrac...  [Read More]

Yep. Waiting 6-9 months for things to gel out a little more with the dual core situation is probably a good idea. Trouble is I don't know that I can hold out for that long though. Seriously. I haven't played TSL yet because I haven't wanted to experi...  [Read More]

yeah, the 5.9 cats are supposed to be a bit more 'streamlined' than the previous drivers. my understanding is that you should see a bit of a performance boost in almost every game you own just by upgrading the drivers. i have yet to test them as i've...  [Read More]
