Intel Core 2 Duo Processor run Halo PC? It isn't fast enough to run Vista :(

We need to know more than that. The speed of it? Ram? Graphics card?

Just use this when seeing if you can run PC games.

While this is true, you'll be able to play it at a higher quality than is found on the Xbox version :D

Yeah. That's right. I don't have a 50 in H3. I never got Onyx in Reach. If a game sucks too much, I won't even bother trying for such trivial "accolades". Besides, I've done way more things that take far more skill and talent than anything that can be done in a video game.

lolNo. He was being sarcastic, I'd hope. That processor's crap and won't run anything well, let alone a game as horribly unoptimized as H2V.

He's not talking about Halo 2 Vista. He's talking about Combat Evolved. That processor is more than enough to run Halo: Combat Evolved at a higher quality than what is found on the Xbox version.

Debatable. I ran a single-core 2.8GHz processor and it choked hardcore on anything above the lowest settings on 640x480.

On what operating system? His CPU is far beyond what's recommended for playing Halo: Combat Evolved.

Was this a Celeron buy any chance? If yes then that's expected, back in the day I had that issue with a 2.8ghz Celeron until i replaced it with a Pentium 4 2.8ghz, where it then worked flawlessly. If not, then that is very strange as to why you got that performance.

OP's been blacklisted apparently?

Yeah, actually it was a Celeron. Dunno why it would make that much of a difference, though.

Celerons were missing something found in the Pentium 4's known as the Maths co processor or something like that. It was needed for intensive 3D applications which is why they never performed well with games back in the day.

Celerons are still made. The range is just a low-end consumer implementation of previous tech, usually with removed/downgraded features to cripple the performance.

Jade visited Drug Abuse Program In Illinois where she met one of friend, so they both decided to visit and attend a drug and alcohol rehab program in maryland and thereafter to have a coffee at drug and alcohol treatment centers in south dakota.

I downloaded the Halo trial, works like a charm. Campaign and Multiplayer work well, and the lag is barely there.

Only problem I have found is when a Plasma weapon fires at me, or when I use the Assualt Rifle sometimes,a rainbow spectrum surrounds my screen. Ah well, nothing's perfect :D

Updating your graphics card drivers may fix this.
