Laptop Gaming:Is it possible?

Ok, here's the deal: I was awarded $2300 :cool: from UNC@Chapel Hill (where I am going to college in fall) towards the purchase of one of their laptops. Originally I had planned to get a cheap laptop and buy a sweet gaming desktop over the summer. Well, now I'm having second thoughts. Here are...

Boot-up Blue-screen Blues

Ok, thanks for the tips. But my primary concern is that annoying blue screen with my 700Mhz Duron. Any ideas on how to fix it?

Boot-up Blue-screen Blues

Recently, there has been a chain of mildly catastrophic computing events in my rig, so I'll try to make it short so as to not run anyone off. First I tried to install a Duron 1.2Ghz chip to replace my old 700Mhz Duron in my KT133 motherboard. Perhaps I'm an idiot for doing so, but I simply...

Really stupid question-how do I format my hard drive?

No, it's not in the faq, so don't point me there. I actually did this a long time ago, following a step by step guide that has probably been thrown away. So, how do i effectively format and reinstall windows without getting a headache?

What can't a 1.2Ghz machine do?

Already ordered. Too f'ing late. Your were the only person too tell me the video was my bottleneck, and it makes perfect sense from the graphs. I absolutley can't believe it! $50 wasted.:disgust:

What can't a 1.2Ghz machine do?

Yeah , if ATI and VIA are incompatible, that would explain a lot. I've gotten low framerates in a lot of 3d games. Plus, One of the biggest reasons I bought it is because of the incredible things I heard about a Radeon in 32bit. Well, it doesn't WORK in 32bit. If only I had known.... Well, AMD...

Hmm....3Ghz.. It seems to me that people will start to realize they don't need to buy computers anymore. Your average Joe doesn't need 3Ghz. Most people buy computers for AOL and printing. You can do that effectively on a 300Mhz machine, 10 times less than what is soon coming out.

Great, I'll do it. Is the new "Hammer" supposed to be Intel's death bell or something? ;)

What can't a 1.2Ghz machine do?

1.2Ghz still seems pretty high to me, despite all the fuss over 2ghz toys. I'm upgrading my 700Mhz Duron to a 1.2Ghz duron and keeping the 256MB SDRAM and the Radeon DDR. What kinds of games CAN'T it play, or is this even a wise upograde decision? (BTW, I'm planning to do a major overhaul...

How did Arafat win the Nobel peace Prize?

Yeah the norwegians are not only anti-semintic, but they are evidently racist also. My mom has a friend in Norway who sends anti-jew and racist jokes over email all the time.

I'm not an advocate of Arafat, but if he is actively supporting terrorists and wishes for the destruction of Israel, how could he have won this?

700Mhz or Radeon 32MB DDR..which is the bottleneck?

Wow, you can use an XP2000+ on a KT133? How? Remember, I am not talking about a KT133a, I'm talking about the ones that were invented exactly two years ago.

Cygni: wow, that's pretty frickin' cheap! Are you sure? hmm.. I suppose a KT133 board with a max 12.5 multiplier isn't exactly going to run the new Athlons, is it?
