Here. Go to your start menu and search for dxdiag.

In the window click save all information. In the notepad file you just created select everything down to DAC type in the Display Devices section and copy/paste it here.

Here you will need this to help you get your foot out of the back of your throat, looks llike its in there pretty deep. And what is that on your face? Egg?! *hands Kim a washcloth*

15 fps is not playable in any shooter.

It's a good enough computer except for your video card. If you just spend 70 bucks on a decent card (I bought an 8600GT with that much), you'd run it without a problem.

I have an 8600GT, 2 gigs of RAM, and a single-core 2.7 GHz CPU and I run it just fine.

Also the AR is actually good in CQB now and no longer a glorified baseball bat.

I do believe he's running a laptop, so a video card upgrade would be extremely difficult, and most likely very expensive.

I can neither confirm or deny the existence of this signature

If you have $500-700 spare, build your own PC. It will be rather nice and it will save you lots of $$$

Still, he has to have a few hundred dollars in the first place.
