If you remember me, you probably remember trying to solve a problem with no solution. To all of you guys who did step in and try to help, thanks a million.
After my last run in with client issues and openGl errors I bought another computer, and had the same problem. Now I'm buying another one and picking it up tomorrow. Before I rip my hair out trying to make DW work I want to post the specs and get a thumbs up and a green light. Anyways, heres the specs. The question is "will it work?".

Other than it's not a Mac, it sounds fine. ![]() Seriously, it sounds fine. Will you be running XP or Vista? If Vista, 512meg is not much... JL |

Windows XP home edition. Yea I'v got a ad up on craigslist looking for a couple 512mb sticks of ram. I figure I'm getting a higher end computer I might as well beef it up as much as possible(it's high end compared to 1.1GHz and a old graphics card). Yea I'v always had really bad luck with DW, I played for about a year on the first account I ever had. Then I had to sell my computer. Once I got another one, it was just problem after problem. I'm hoping this computer will be the end of all epic fail ![]() The last time I played DW was 3 computers ago. I'd absolutely sh** my pants if it runs on this computer I'm getting. |

How much memory does the graphics card have? | ||

Graphics are on board
and probably shares system RAM (via UMA , I think) Max seting is prob 128meg With an AGP socket the world is his oyster ( I am selling a real nice card Nvidia 7600GS on EBAY , but because it is AGP I will get [pennies) COCO |

Not sure but I do know it has two slots for ram and a graphics card that supports openGL. Sorry, I can't buy your Nvidia, I have no spare cash. ![]() |
