Bungie r dicks

Most of my games won't boot up on my computer. The games are older ones, from like 2003 and stuff.
The games:
G-MOD
C:SS
HL2
BF2
Portal + Portal 2
the games go up into a black screen and exit moments later. I can run Worms: Armageddon just fine.

What are your specs?
Have you tried validating your files?
Have you tried updating your drivers?

There's no way to get back experiences you missed.
So start right now today and risk furiousness for bliss.

Then you can't run them. That's a ridiculously old computer.

Still terrible.
Get a new PC.

Give me some money. I have TONS of parts to use but no idea or space to put them in. I have a Radeon Sapphire x1650 but the wrong port for it. It's the one I used for the rig that got fried at the beginning of December. 500-600 sticks of RAM (Dad runs computer company) and several hard drives. I'm trying to get a bigger HD cage to put my old HD in.

I had a very similar thing, only I threw a 14 story building out of a pool and hit a kid on a paper aeroplane.


The Flood is just this awesome :D

Upgrading won't do much good, because all you'll be doing is getting a brand new PC but doing it piece by piece. I'm pretty sure I can get a rig for about 300-400 that can perform a lot better than yours. Just buy a new PC instead of upgrading parts.

Now running 8400
EDIT: While I'm at it, do you guys know that if I change my motherboard, anything will screw up?

It's a mass upgrade because I have the parts I need.
