So heres my stuff. Not the best but it goes OK for what I use it for. Plus I don't tend to buy the most upto date games etc and so for now its how it will be. No new purchases.
AMD 64 2800 Newcastle
Geforce 4 4200Ti 64meg
256mb RAM (2100)
WIN XP
Mobo...can't remember.
It plays Half Life 2 ok, load times abit slow. Doom3 surprisingly well but I did mess around with some memory thing (can't remmebr for the life of me) allowing it to use more/less than standard.
So, how can I get the best out of this little lot? Where best to start?
Is there stuff in XP I can get rid of easily?
General tips on keeping things running as good as can be on this type of thing?
rules:
1) no slagging it off. It keeps me happy and out of trouble.
2) no money to be spent on it.
3) no clocking
4) must be easy to do or at least instructions.
