Is there any way to get out of safemode on my Halo PC?
I dont know alot about computers......
Its a gateway computer, Windows XP, With and embedded graphics card. I had a crappy type of an Intel graphics card and i found a new chipset and downloaded Extreme Graphics. I heard there was Extreme graphics 2 but i cant find it. Can some one please upload it to megaupload or rappidshare please?

Yes, I am a hypocrite, and I'm sorry. I really do mean well, but I'm not running on all cylinders.

Everytime someone buys a copy of Halo 2 Vista, a puppy dies.

You can't download new hardware. You probably just downloaded drivers for a better chipset that you don't have, possibly screwing up your configuration even more. If your video chipset won't run halo without safe mode, then the only thing you can do is get one that will run it without safe mode...

It's against copyright law for people to upload and download hardware (new graphics cards etc) for free. I'm sure you've heard about all the people sued for this.

What most people do is use torrents to download their new hard drives, extra RAM etc. The quality might not be as good, but you know. You get what you pay for! I will add that you need a fast connection. If you want to download new RAM, let's say 4GB extra, you need to download 4GB worth of data. On torrents this can be pretty slow, so be prepared!

Just a note of caution. If you use torrents, you have to upload as well, and uploading gives someone else your current RAM/hard drive space. So, if you downloaded 4GB of RAM but uploaded 5GB, you've lost 1GB of your own RAM. If you lose 100% of your RAM, your PC will crash and you'll need to take it to a shop. :(

I'd recommend paying.

I think he means he bought a new chipset and then downloaded the driver extream graphics. P.S I don't think you can download hardware.
