I just finished building my first computer. Woo- go me.
Now I have a few questions First, I'll post my specs
amd 3000+ 64
asus k8v se deluxe
512mb kingston pc3200 (DDR 400)
120 gb caviar hd (western digital)
asus cd-rom drive (not sure what model #, got it on newegg.com for 80 bucks)
pny geforce fx5700 le 128 mb
Also had xp corperate ed. when i encountered these problems. Now have service pack two regular xp pro
My onboard lan would not recognize my cable internet. Well...it would if I restarted the modem while the computer was on, but when I would restart the comp. it wouldn't get a new ip until i turn off the modem again. Had massive trouble with the net being slow when it did work also. Precaching for counter-strike took forever, and my download speed was a quarter of norm.
I installed neverwinter nights and it runs kinda slow and crappy. I thought the game would be easy for my computer, but it sucks on it...I'm well above the recommended specs for the game.
Please, help me lol.
