i thought about asking what graphics card he had, but he said he was going through "withdrawals"... so i thought he meant he was playing these games before, but now he can&#39;t. but those specs, jeez. you can&#39;t get HALO withdrawals if your system was never ran it in the first place. :huh:

yeah, sorry, the problem is not Direct3D or DirectX being properly installed or anything... it&#39;s that your computer just isn&#39;t up to snuff anymore for slick games like Halo. time to think about building a new PC. if you build it yourself with your own hands, you could prolly slap together a PC that plays most of the newest games for &#036;500-&#036;600. it&#39;s not that difficult... just read a couple of guides on how to find bargains on parts and how to assemble it. it wouldn&#39;t slay Doom 3 or anything, but it&#39;d be good enough to run all that stuff you&#39;ve been trying to play.

GOLDEN RULE: once it&#39;s out of the box, it&#39;s old

next time build urself a PC instead of buying, so much cheaper and more customization, did i mention cheaper? :01: how much u buy that crap for (sorry)? if it was more than 600 dollars at the time, u coula built the same rig AT THAT TIME for about 300-350, max 400.
