I run BF2 SP on my Inspiron 6000, 1.5 pentium M, 2gigs ram, X300 64mb. I run it at 800x600 at med settings 100% draw distance just fine. Its slow on the load times but its great in game. Been thinking about a 7200rpm hdd.
What about future gaming? Its the newest card on the market in that price range. The X800 series is a good card, but my X800XL is showing its limits on the newest games.
It takes too long to get into a server when I hit Play Now. I prefer to pick the server I am going to play on. It makes it a lot more enjoyable, you should try that. Plus I have found some servers that I play on regularly. I usually have a lot of fun winning or losing on those.
Ive used Play...
Some of those complaints are just lack of server moderation and immature players. Which is in any game.
Maybe there is something wrong with these peoples computers?? I havent had any graphical problems since the first patch and some new video card drivers.
Matter of fact, I play on my...
Did he unistall the old drivers and disable the onboard graphics? Did he run a driver cleaner to remove the Nvidia drivers before install the ATI ones? They dont get along too well with each other.
Did you do a fresh install of windows with all the updates and all the updated drivers for the mobo, sound card, video, etc?
Sounds like maybe a software problem.
Maybe a virus or spyware?
If your not worried about loud, then you might want to look at the Thermalright XP-90 or XP-120 with a high flow panaflo fan. I had better cooling with my XP-90 and a panaflo then the Zalman.
Just depends on how much work you want to do. I would just build all 3 at stock and make sure they work good and then work on overclocking your rig later when you have more time. Overclocking can be pain, and sometimes is not worth the hassle for the gain.
There isnt really a fast way to test OC's. It takes time to test for stability. The minimum for a stability test is 24 hours of Prime95 on the cpu and 24 hours of memtest on the memory. Your looking at a week or more to find the best OCing pieces out of 3 rigs. Thats a lot of work. If they are...
Ive had that problem lately, and Ive seen a LOT of TKs lately. Really annoying, but I still like the game a lot. I like the favorites folder in the new patch. Ive found a couple of servers I like and its easier than writing down IP addresses on post it notes.

Cooling is a mileage may vary thing. Try oc'ing with the stock cooler first and see what you get. Just follow the guidelines of OCing and youll be all right. I havent changed my stock cooler or even replaced the thermal paste on my X800XL. It seems to be just fine. About all I can get out of...
I disabled my paging file and deleted the file off my hdd and I havent had any problem running, BF2 at 1024x768 max settings, fraps, ati tool, teamspeak, and winamp all at the same time. Ive been running like that for 2 monthes and have never had a problem.
I dont think my system is any...
